Hello! I am French and was working at a lawyers firm in Valencia and in Belgium in compliance before. Now I am travelling and plan to pass the bar to be a lawyer Paris in september. I am also a firefighter volunteer in Paris and soon going to change for being in the police as a reservist. I would like to discover the world by bike, hitchhiking or whatever. I have many passions such as art, economics, theatre, sports in general and more particularly karate, running, trail, sailing...I have already done some volunteer work envolving children and environment. I love this kind of experience which allows to connect people from different cultures. I think that the exchange of point of views, culture is very enriching and I love it. Also I love traveling in an adventurous way. I am very inspired by people such as explorators like Mike Horn who push their limits and I am a fan of stoicism. I think that visiting a country is not just going to a place like any basic tourist but also know more about the history meet local people … and if possible help the locals by buying local food or volunteering.
I didn’t host already unfortunately because I always lived with people and they never accepted as they don’t understand the concept but as soon as I will have my own place I will do it to give back what I received !

Finally, I’ll state what’s obvious: Couchsurfing is not tinder.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Solo trip in Egypt w camel in the desert and horse riding : nearly died

28 h of bus from Varsovie to paris and 11 h of plane just after.

Parachuting at 5000m, truly Amazing !!

Had to fight with a bédouin in morocco in the middle of the Desert and défeated him

Lost my passport in a bag i sold in Berlin with a flight 24 h later in Beauvais airport ( so fucking far) : mission impossible

My phone stopped to work and i had no more money in Tanzania, had to go in the middle of the night without knowing what Time is it and take a tuktuk for an hour to arrive to airport to réalise that I let my wallet at my friend place

Didn’t receive my visa on the day of my plane to Ivory coast. Had to do the vaccine of yellow fever the day before and take medicine for paludism at last minute as I was traveling before and my friends didn’t tell m me anything about it. Finally the plane was cancelled and I didn’t have to pay any extra to change it a few days after even tho I didn’t have my visa. In that way I was more protected to yellow fever as vaccine is valid after 10 days. So in misfortune there is always a way.

And many more, it just seems normal to me now you know
