Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Meeting authentic people & having enriching experiences.
ABOUT ME
I was born and raised in Grenoble in the Alps. I enjoyed music, sports and outdoors activities. I wanted to specialized in Acoustics engineering, so I went to Paris in order to finish my studies. Since then, I started to work and began to travel. For several years now, I have never stopped learning from the diversity and the richness of the world. And each new day allows me to feel more and more that life is good and worth it!
PHILOSOPHY
Enjoy life, exploring and learning.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm glad to participate in the CS project in exchanging with others from all other the world. This contributes to enlarge my knowledge of other communities in a friendly way, and to feel closer to others and to myself also. I think this is a great opportunity to build a more human world, as we learn to know and understand each others.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
All the couchsurfing experiences I had have been very enriching, the best way to explore the culture of the different places I went to.
Interests
I like to travel and explore new places and cultures. I enjoy a lot to meet people and speak English : I organise indeed English conversation groups in pubs or cafés in Paris (http://www.meetup.com/talkin-english).
My interests are eclectic, such as music, guitar, theatre, cinema, photography, spirituality, hiking...
