Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION:
Enjoy my family and the tremendous surrounding of Annecy by ski, climbing, trail running, bycicles or trekking! Meet new people is always a good experience too:-)
ABOUT ME
In the house, we are a family of 4 with my wife Cécile and my girls Manon (born 2018) and Agathe (born 2020).
I am a french guy living in Annecy (France / Alps) since August 2017. I used to work in Mexico (2 years in Torreon), London, Paris and I studied during 2 years production engineering in KTH in Stockholm, Sweden. I spend most of my free time in doing activites in the nature (climbing, trail running, alpinism, ski), traveling (mostly backpacking through couchsurfing or into the wild!). Indeed, I love discover new cultures and new people. We traveled in most of Europe and in many countries: India and Nepal, Iceland, Jordan, Peru, Turkey, Myanmar, Vietnam, La Réunion, Costa Rica, USA, Cuba! As you see, traveling is my passion!
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy life because we have just one!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I can host people or help someone to discover the Alps! I would be very happy to host families also for my girls to play with other kids
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I hosted people more than 15 times and it was always awesome!
I surfed as well 6 times in Denmark, 4 times in Sweden, once in Norway and twice in UK and I enjoyed each time the different hosts!
Interests
Travels, trek, culture, cooking, meeting new people, party, piano! Sport has become more and more important for me: trail, climbing, cycling, hiking, skiing are part of my hobbies....
Music, Movies, and Books
Movie: Into the wild, Diarios de motocicleta, almost any movie talking about traveling or nature, and I love french movies such as Le fabuleux destin d'Amélie Poulain, Arnacoeur or Prête-moi ta main.
Music: open to everything but I prefer reggae and hip hop. However, my best album ever is from Eddie Vebber, it is the BO of Into the Wild.
Book: history with suspens books from Dan Brown or Ken Follet, or books around the travel
I read also many classics as I can (Maupassant, Camus, Zola...)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
A 3-weeks trip in Norway, 1300km hitch-hiking, sleeping outside and hiking! Just amazing landscapes and adventure! I couchsurfed in Trondheim during this trip!
Every trip is amazing! One of the last, we slept with farmers in the middle of Myanmar, great experience!
