ABOUT ME
I'm a 21yo, French student, friendly guy who loves meeting nice people and talking with, so as to share opinions and cultures, and to make new friends !
I'm easy going and open-minded, but what I love above all is sharing a good meal or having a glass of wine with persons I feel good with.
PHILOSOPHY
Travelling and go and meet people is the key to an open-mind.
Carpe Diem.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Now I've finished my trip overseas, I'm back to France. I'm in Montpellier right now and I'm keen to host some people especially foreign ones, when they want to !
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Just spent a great week-end with a great couch-surfer in Sydney. Despite the heavy rains that could have ruined my stay, he saved it by making me meet his friends and hanging out together.
That's the way I like !!
Interests
I love listening to music (any kind) and watching good movies with a bunch of mates. I like sports, especially skiing, swimming and playing football.
I love travelling too, escaping from my native France, to discover countries I don't know, come across cultures I'm not familiar with and meet people. That is basically why I decided to come to Australia for my internship !!

Music, Movies, and Books
Music - Almost every kind, but I'm currently pretty much into electronic : Daft Punk, The Glitch Mob, Ratatat, Birdy Nam Nam... are my favourites.
But I love Jason Mraz, The Scissor Sisters, Cocoon too, and lots of 70's rock bands such as Pink Floyd, The Rolling stones or Dire Straits...
Movies - My top one is (and will always be) Pulp Fiction. Then come lots of good films, Inception, Gladiator, Some Like It Hot, Inglourious Basterds, Rock'n'rolla, Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, SNATCH... My favourite directors are Quentin Tarantino, Guy Ritchie and Woody Allen.
Books - Used to read a lot but slowed down a little because of the studies. Anyway, my favourite book is the Millenium trilogy. Best story ever !
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
On top of everything, my three-months stay in Melbourne, Australia, last summmer. Awesome pleasure taken, awesome people met, awesome life lived. Everything was awesome.
Walking in the wide New-York streets, surrounded by the tallest building in all world, feeling absolutely safe though everything is made to make you feel oppressed, is the most astonishing thing I've ever had to witness.
Riding bike in the huge flat Danish fields was a pure moment of freedom, so as was the arrival at the Mons Klint cliffs by a wonderful summer day.
One of my best memories is a three-day trip in one of the most isolated island of Stockholm's archipelago, Gällnö, enjoying everyday the sun on the rocks on the waterside.
Teach, Learn, Share
Learn - Everything. Please. Teach me.
Teach - All I know. Cooking a few delicious meals from Provence (my native region in France) ; French language ; what I prefer is making people listen to the music I like.
Share - Everything I can. I love sharing with people, talk about my culture and my thoughts, and listening to the others doing the same.
