Overview
About Me
ABOUT ME
I'm a french guy who lives in Paris. I'm cool, friendly, open-minded. I’m really interested in different cultures and way of livings. I was born in Colombia and raised in Middle-East. I have a main passion in life: traveling. I've been a globe-trotter in recent years.
I am interested in old civilisation, nature and communication with locals. Sharing all the feelings with people from different countries and cultures is important for me. I believe we can make good connections here!
PHILOSOPHY
Life is so short… Travel more, read more, learn more...
Love and Happiness! I try also to live according the french motto :
"Liberté - Egalité - Fraternité" - "Freedom - Equality - Brotherhood"
not by nationalism, rather as fundamental values to get flourished human relationships.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Love discovering new cultures, new places and meeting people. I've happily been surfing or hang out every time I've traveled since I discovered this amazing project.
In addition, like to be a host, and help as much as I can. I've hosted many fantastic surfers, all of whom shared so many stories and made the few days we had so exciting and fun!
COUCHSURFINGCOUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I´m excited about meeting new friends, sharing our cultures, stories, and creating new anecdotes! Most of our hosts and guests now are our friends, and very good friends! That´s so amazing!!!
I also created the CouchSurfer group "Réfugiés Bienvenue" to facilitate for the refugies to find someone to host them.
NOTICE: Couchsurfing is a way to spent time together, to interact, to share same interests, make new friends and to exchange cultures and experiences. If you are looking for a free place to stay, I can recommand you some hostels.
Interests
- Love traveling so much that I've been to 75 different countries... so far !
- Art in general: Photography. I like to visit exhibitions, cultural centers,… my mother is a painter.
- Nature and architecture: I love admire how human being can imitate the perfection, beauty, greatness with our constructions and at the same time they are combined with natural elements like the vegetation.
- History: I believe in the quote that says: "If your don't know history, you are condemned to repeat it". Going in the places where history ocurred is a huge and better opportunity to learn

Music, Movies, and Books
Music: various kinds of music but not hard rock.
Movies: in fact, I have watched many films. I go every week to the cinema. I like Almodovar, Ozon, Xavier Dolan,...
Books: it's useless even to try to write what I prefer to read: history, philosophy, fiction,...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I saw lots of unforgettable places over the world. During my last travel in Indonesia, climb the Kawa Ijen volcano in Java with the minors.
Teach, Learn, Share
About the French culture in general. Learn? Any new lesson is a good lesson.
What I Can Share with Hosts
All of our adventures and travels.
Believe that allowing a refugee to live in our house during several months is a great act of trust and kindness, which are two things this world needs so much.
