Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I personally think that "couchsurfing" is a really good idea. I like to meet new people with people all around the world. I love to meet, talk, have a drink and share things with strangers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I went to Slovenia for new year 2010 and was host by two different people.

Interests

I like to watch : football, rugby, tennis, basketball... I was a football player as a amateur and then I became referee for 2 years.
I like to party with my friends, watch movies, hanging out in pubs, play poker and guitar (but not at the same time lol),

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Go to Anfield, the stadium of the Liverpool Football Club was a fantastic and unforgetable experience for me. I will remember this all my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I could share my favorites songs and hope some of you will discover and appreciate great artists and french music. I can teach you how to play poker but if someone can improve my guitar skills, that will be very appreciated :) . I also can teach some few words of french and share my passion for movies, sport, music...

Why not learn a few words of a stranger langage and learn what people want me to know about their country.
