Hi everybody !
My name is Antoine, I live currently in Lille, a nice city at the North of the France. I have decided to leave my daily life for a while for travelling through Europe. My first destination : The United Kingdom and The Republic of Ireland !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would like to live enriching experiences, convivial meetings and I would be honored to be able to make myself useful in different ways.

Interests

I'm passionate about cinema, which I've studied at the university, I've worked in a cinema for almost 4 years. Other things : I love hiking, video games, music (I play drums, guitar also but not very well...) and DIY. Moreover I spent few months in a carpentry association, I discovered the use of circular saw and other machines for woodworking (it almost not makes me afraid anymore !)

Music, Movies, and Books

Currently I listen to the soundtracks of Trainspotting 2, I read "In the forests of Siberia", the novel of a French writer who spent several months alone in a small hut on the shore of Lake Baikal in Russia. As I work in a cinema, I see a lot of movies, since the New Year, my best is "Moonlight" (he did not rob his prize!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A few years ago, I traveled by bike in France with my girlfriend, we crossed Picardy, Normandy and Brittany for a month. We slept in a tent by the cliffs, in the woods, in the fields and sometimes in the garden of people we met. Quietly we discovered some great landscapes, exotic villages, (Mont Saint-Michel!), We spent evenings with adorable people. I admit, however, when we arrived at Brest, at the end of the Breton coast, I said "I cannot stand the bike anymore... no way, I go back by train".

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am motivated to bring back a bottle, some things for the aperitif, I can also cook according to the tastes and desires of my hosts (if they trust me!)
