About Me

Hi,
I am a french student in business and mechanical engineering. I come from Lyon but I study in Montpellier and I lived in Glasgow for 1 year and Taipei for 6 months.
My hobbies include mountain no matters winter or summer ( skiing, rock-climbing, hiking) and also tennis.
I also really music festival ( true psytrance lover but also techno, reggae dub).
I did most of my travel with friend so far (hitch-hiking, train, bike, road trip with a car, and motorbiking) but I come to enjoy solo travelling also as you meet more people than when you can stay with your friend in your "comfort zone" :)
See you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I usually do camping or sleep at unknown host home when solo travelling but without use couch surfing cause I find it better when it is spontaneous and random meeting :) However this time I am going to cold country and I can't sleep open-air if I don't find an host :)
So I think it could allow me to keep my youth hostel budget acceptable. See you one of those day !

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't watch lot of movies/series but rather documentaries about mountaineering, alpinism or adventure-related (huge fan of mike horn documentaries lol).
I don't read many books neither, but I sometimes buy magazines with articles about society subjects when I have long journey.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A delicious mayonnaise in April 2007.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach French, I used to teach english to taiwanese kids as well. I can talk hours of my previous trip but I think I prefer to listen to others' stories to get new ideas about where to go.

What I Can Share with Hosts
