About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I want to see new faces, traveling and meeting a few folks along the way

ABOUT ME

I am open mind writer, reader, music lover and all around adventurer. What is more important than experiences in this life ?
I come from the far countryside of northern France. After traveling and studying in Europe, I settled myself in the beautiful city of Angels : Los Angeles

I like meeting other folks and discovering new cultures . I just love life and try to live happily =)

I love traveling, and I'm always looking for an excuse to go discovering new places. Long before I discovered couch surfing, I would be crashing on my friends' couches whenever I went somewhere =).

PHILOSOPHY

be a good person and help others. I'm a big dreamer and I try to forge a better future. I'm very motivated in everything I m doing. I thrive on challenges and experiences
the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars
