I am Julien (31) from France. I have been moving around and I had nice adventures. I love nature and everything that goes with it so hiking, sailing, sea kayaking, rock climbing. (If you propose some excursions I would be so excited and happy)

About myself, I like doing yoga, meditating, drawing, writing. I am easygoing and used to moving around. I am always curious to meet new people and willing to help.

I am traveling around in Asia doing some volunteering and I am heading to Malaysia next week. I am an architect and a woodworker and I would like to discover new material to work with like bamboo! On the way down, I would really love to share some time with locals and hopefully meeting nice people with CS.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have a nomadic way of living and sometimes I need a place to stay, and I love to meet locals
