About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make the best out of my free time before the next job.

ABOUT ME

I was born in France but I'm definitelly European first. I live in Switzerland where I share my flat with a Finnish and a Bulgarian. My girlfriend is Croatian and my friends come from all over the continent. This, as well as my job, gives me the opportunity to travel a lot and to discover all this European diversity which is so rich. I currently work in the finance world but I actually believe more in other values such as sharing, protecting the environment, non-consumerism, ...

PHILOSOPHY

No stress: there is no problem, only solutions

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far I mainly hosted people. I try to do it when I have time to spend with them to show them around and get to know them. I made good friends through CS and I met this people several times again (btw they are all Canadian... Would the Canadians be the most friendly people on earth??) .

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I consider myself as fairly experienced now as I hosted more than 30 people and surfed a couple of times. It was always enjoyable except maybe one time with a dude who thought he could take beers in my fridge without even asking...
