About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoying the life

ABOUT ME

I like to be outdoor, enjoying nature, doing sport, going out with friends. I like simplicity.

I also like travelling, it allows to see great outdoors and to live new experiences, meet random new people and share adventures, learn different points of view or way of living. I try to see things without preconceptions to better understand and merge into others cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a few persons and it's always been a good experience. I usually try to take time to share something with my guests, like a meal, a beer, an outdoor activity or simply a walk along the lake. I really like my region and it's always a pleasure for me to guide foreign people through it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed a couple of couches in west-USA when I was traveling with a friend.
It was always a great time! Only positive experiences, in so differents environement, with nice and helpfull people.
