CURRENT MISSION French guy living in Sao Paulo since March 2026. June 2026 : I am currently on a roadtrip and not in Sao Paulo. Updated 05/2026 : "If I had to describe my background in a few words in terms of travel: I’ve had the opportunity and good fortune to travel both professionally and personally on a regular basis across four continents over the past 12 years. Above all, I’m someone who’s very curious about other people. I love meeting new people and enjoying life’s simple pleasures, especially when they involve interesting and thought-provoking conversations. I’m also passionate about geopolitics in general; I don’t have any preconceived notions, and I’m thrilled to learn new ways of seeing things and discover different cultures. Besides that, I’m a calm and respectful person. I really enjoy going out (maybe a little too much, I’ve tried to cut back on going out this past year, but to no avail, haha). I love going out to all kinds of new places to explore (From exhibitions, museums, and cultural tours to bars, clubs, and unique spots, I have no limits); any new experience is welcome. I’d describe myself as someone who never says no and who embraces every opportunity with positivity. I also do a lot of sports, so I’m always happy to go out and practice with someone, whether it’s a martial art, a hike, or an unusual sporting activity. Friendly disclaimer 🫣 Just to avoid confusion: I'm straight, not looking for romantic or sexual encounters, and mainly here for the original Couchsurfing vibe: travel, friendship and cultural exchange 😊" ABOUT ME I have completed my international business master in 2019, I did part of my studies and career abroad. I had the chance to discover beautiful places and people from all around the world. I am friendly and easy going guy. Respect for others is a value I am very attached to. I am someone you can count on, clean and reliable as I expect the same from you at my place. Nomad for the last years PHILOSOPHY Travel, work hard to achieve goals. Explore cultures. Don't judge on the appearance. Prejudices can fail you to understand someone personality. ". . . I find that there is nothing barbarous and savage in this nation, by anything that I can gather, excepting, that every one gives the title of barbarism to everything that is not in use in his own country. As, indeed, we have no other level of truth and reason than the example and idea of the opinions and customs of the place wherein we live..." (Montaigne)

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Why I am couchsurfing ? We have developed a sharing economy world over the last decade. Couchsurfing give you a real opportunity to meet a local person when visiting new places. Plus, it matches people who love traveling. Sharing experiences. I like to discover the unknown. Sharing our experience allow us to learn a lot from others, to build our own opinion. I am passionate by the difference between cultures and I always want to learn more from people. Every culture shock I have lived make me learn a lot of myself.
Music, Movies, and Books
- Movie : thriller, drama, true story ( American history x, dead poets society, the green light, OZ, the Sopranos, .....) - Music :I like all style of music. particularly interested in groove, deep, rap and jazz.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Thanks to my travel I have experienced such extraordinary things. -One of the best was my second eurotrip in 2015. My friend and I left over a month through Europe by hitchhiking. We did not planned so much, we left from Paris. We have one objective : don't spend more than 20euro each day. I think that part was the most exciting. While we think eastern Europe is cheaper, we were confronting at camping site where it was usually 25euro to pitch a tent including two persons: means not much money left for the day. I will qualify this trip in few key words : sauvage camping, amazing people, great experiences, good contact, waiting time on petrol station and many many memories. (country visited that time : Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, Slovenia, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Italia) - another Incredible experience: I had a bones fracture while playing football with monks in Myanmar.
