About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover London and all it has to offer ... improve my English and then set off for the States.

ABOUT ME

The eldest of a family of four children brought up in a lovely old house in a small friendly village in the south-west of France, I'm the first about to leave our safe, comfortable nest to discover the world a little. I've got my Baccalauréat and want to take some time out before going on to Further Education. I need time to think because I don't really know what I want to do. I have passed the "BAFA" (a French diploma which enables you to supervise and assist in the running of children's play groups and summer camps) ; I did this work last summer, really enjoyed it and so I've got work lined up for this coming summer too. It's "money for old rope" as far as I'm concerned because I love little kids which is lucky as I've got a sister and two little brothers ! In my free time I play the drums in groups with friends and I do a lot of bicross. Otherwise physically, I like to think of myself as a tall, dark, handsome Frenchman !!

PHILOSOPHY

I'll sus that one out while I'm taking my year out !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm completely new to couchsurfing. I started a university course last September but it wasn't for me, and I've decided to take a year out ; I want to go and visit London and improve my English and then go to the States. I'm looking forward to meeting people and getting to know the Anglo-saxon world ! I heard about couchsurfing on French television and thought it sounded a great idea !
