Optimistic, curious and outgoing person I love traveling and meeting locals.
Interests: photography, music and cinema, cultures
Sports: running, tennis, squash and rugby
Graduate from a French business school, I used to be a manager in a retail store for cultural products. Now I'm traveling at least until December 2014.

En 2013-2014 me di la vuelta al mundo.
Viajando, entendí que me gustaba conocer otras culturas, estilos de vida más que visitar sitios turísticos.

I have been on a round the world trip for 18 months.
While traveling I have realised that more than touristic spots I like discovering other cultures, ways of life and meeting with local people to get to know the city/country in a different way. When I travel I don't fancy big hotels or restaurants, I grab my backpack and I enjoy hostels, street food and walking in the streets and parks taking pictures.

PHILOSOPHY

Live your life so you don't have any regrets!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I spread the word about that way of travelling.
I have introduced couchsurfing to a friend of mine during our travel in the US from Miami to NYC... He's a proud member now!!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed in every country I have been to in my trip. I use it for surfing, meeting locals and travelers, knowing more about local events and spots and even find rides... It's my best tool for traveling!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time I have driven a motorbike I was in Saigon... I learned to drive in that 7 million inhabitants traffic. You can imagine it was pretty intense and full of sensations. I really enjoyed that ride from my hotel to the airport.

I independently organised the 2d trek of my life in Choquequirao: what an exhausting trek, but stunning landscapes, lovely ruins and such a satisfaction after finishing it!
