About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Being awesome.

ABOUT ME

If you meet me, you'll have the pleasure of knowing all about me ^^ Until then, here are a few informations, in order to appear interesting enough (...) :
I'm 28 years old, (for now, because I've heard that, sometimes, these things can change...) I'm French (someone had to be), I'm a pretty good cook (which always seems worth mentioning)and if I could be travelling for the rest of my life, that wouldn't be half bad.
However, I'm told that one has to make a living, at some point, which is why, after moving to New York to study the last opium dens and desperately trying to teach French at the Royal Holloway University of London, I now live between Lyon and NYC, where I am attempting to conduct a PHD on drug addicts in the 19th century. I've had worse ideas.

PHILOSOPHY

Absolutely. With a glass of wine, please.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I didn't get to host many people yet, but I definitely want to. I've been couch-surfing for the past 6 years, and I cannot imagine a better way to travel.
I've also been initiating a lot of people to the Great Experience these past years ^^

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experiences have always been very good ones. Once you've tried couch surfing, traveling any other way seems to be a little pointless. I would never have met so many interesting people or seen so many amazing things if I hadn't done it.
I can't think of a better way to get to know the world.

Interests

Obviously, food. I mean *obviously*. But when I have to find something else to do there are also :
- Books (reading them, writing them, eating them...)
- Movies (seeing them, making them, eating them)
At that point you will have noticed i eat anything, mostly.
- Telling stories
- Hearing stories
- Travelling (well... yes)
- lobsters
- snail races
- anything orange
- sleeping
- laughing
- being magic
- collecting knives
- bothering cats
- solving mysteries
I could really go on, but you're probably not reading anymore...

Music, Movies, and Books

That takes about 2/3 of my life, so that would be a long, long list...
