ABOUT ME

I’m Martin. I’m discreet nature but present, open-minded, partcipating and positive.
After a technical degree in wooden construction, I’ve passed three years in architecture school to prepare a bachelor's degree.
2014-2015 is a transitive year. I plan to discover other country and cultures which will permit me to improve my english.

PHILOSOPHY

Carpe Diem, taken from a poem in the Odes by Horace : «Seize the day».

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During two years I was a room-mate in a large flat in Nancy called «La Hulotte Band». Lots of couchsurfers are came.
Now I am in Fontenay-sous-Bois near Paris. It's a very small one room apartment.

Interests

Everything concerned the construction and particularly wooden construction.
The music, I have played drums during 10 years.
Sailing is one on my favorites sports especially the 470 class.
The gliding and the free flight.
I love to understand how the things work. Since I’ve got a citroën 2cv, I’ve learned the mecanic.
