About Me

I love meeting new people and enjoy travelling. I'm trustworthy, honest and an open minded person.

Before 25 yrs old, I used to live in Bask Country (South of France). Parallel to my studies, I have worked during 7 years as lifeguard & fireman in Biarritz. My hobbies was surfing with friends, enjoying nature (mountains and forests walks), and playing music (drums and guitar).

Since 2007, I live in Paris. I work as digital account director in an advertising agency. With friends, I'm also creating a start-up. I love culture, museum, walks in the streets, running, cycling and good restaurants.

Paris is also a good starting point to travel everywhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a recent experience to me and I feel totally in phase with the philosophy : meet, share, enjoy with human being.

It's just about sharing. Sharing my home, sharing experiences, living better.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2008, with surfboards, wetsuits and scholar stuffs, we leave France by campers van to Morocco (something like 48 hours by drive).

We have created a caritative association based on surfing. (Profile picture)

I'm proud of this because 7 years later, 2 of the local people had passed their license and became Surfing Instructors. These changes their lives, and ours.
