About Me

Hello! First of all I have another Couchsurfing profile with more reviews : https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/2003899899. Don't hesitate to have a look on it as well ;)

I'm a french-mexican guy currently travelling around the world for a few months (again)!

Coming from a small town in the western region of Paris (near Versailles and its Castle) I grew up in France but had to chance to study abroad in Switzerland and of course enjoy a wonderful double culture with Mexico. I work in Tourism in general (Travel Agency, Hotels, Expedia group, etc..) and had the opportunity to get to know incredible places and people during those past few years.

I love traveling (it's more than a hobby, it's a way of life, a basic need..) , skiing, hiking, trekking. I'm a big fan of mountains ( the Alps, Atlas, Andes, Himalayas,etc..) and the far north ( Lapland, Nordic countries...) But my biggest achievment was a road trip of 10 months from Canada to Argentina with 2 good friends 🙂 (our CS profil: https://www.couchsurfing.com/users/2003899899) and 3 month in the Himalayas with one of my greatest mate.

The things we've done and lived through will remain forever and are worth sharing.

I've also been car pooling with my own car on blablacar for years and love to use other sharing aps like drivy. I couchsurf mainly to get to know countries from the inside, from their culture and people. I behave like a guest, not a hotel client...

Finally I guess I'm a curious guy, I adapt easily and I always clean after myself aha. Oh and I love psytrance, beer and can't wait to have a bigger motorbike than my previous hipster scooter i had while living in Paris.

Cheers,

;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying at a local's place is the essence of travelling.

Interests

Travels, travels and travels ;) I've been everywhere in Europe and have plenty of conversation and story to tells :)

I also love hiking and skiing but also to discover new kind of litterature while I'm traveling ( i'm a heavy reader). And I'm a huge fan of electronic music parties and festivals: freedom festival, hadra festival, ozora festival etc... I'm dreaming about a life full of roadtrips..

PS: I also love beers, ALL of them...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Not enough writing space to tell but from hiking to Everest Base camp in Nepal to Ayahuasca in the jungles of Peru or driving a 27 years old dirty van in Canada and the US i realize I am in a desperate fight against boredom.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories and information about Paris as I used to work as a guide ;) . I know plenty of people in dowtown Paris ( I live in the suburbs) that could host you in exchange.

I always bring good beers and a smile!

I can also share years of stories and experiences travel 😉
