About Me

I really love travelling and meeting new people from everywhere, discovering their culture and incredible places.

I grew up in Brittany, France. I've lived in Norway, China, England and India, and am now working in the alps.

PHILOSOPHY

"le bonheur est une vieille qui boite sur du verglas", so enjoy each moment

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I would like to meet even more interesting people, and just think couchsurfing make it easier. I can host you even if you ask me 2 hours before

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted by awesome people in Europe and Asia, and I was hosting people in Bergen.

Interests

Since I started to work, I got pretty active and I don't really like "doing nothing" anymore. This has some good and bad points, i guess. But I try to meet friends/new people every day and go to the mountains together, no matter if it's with bike, skis, sledge, or even feet

Music, Movies, and Books

music: variété française, dub, ska, hip hop, gypsy/klezmer, hard rock, post rock, punk, some electro, some reggae, some classical, some swing, some funk, some pop. Very open and curious about music, I listen to almost everything. Some artists I like:
Arcade fire, David Bowie, The Smiths, Iggy Pop, Devendra Banhart, Tricky, High Tone, Zenzile, Godspeed you! Black Emperor, Prodigy, Amon tobin, Something A la Mode, Iron Maiden, Faith No more, Dream Theater, Children of Bodom, CunninLynguists, The Streets, Just Jack, Cypress Hill, Lyre le temps, Caravan palace, Pad Brapad, Chinese Man, Wax Tailor, The Cat Empire, Gogol Bordello, Toots, Herman Dune, Yann Tiersen, Pigalle, HF Thiefaine, Higelin, Dutronc, Brel, Gainsbourg, Bashung, Noir Desir, Dionysos, Miossec, Mano Solo, les Cowboys fringants, Les Fatals Picards, Oldelaf, -M-, Arthur H...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing things are not really those we speak about. But well, I ll give a try: sleep in a temple with the monks, jump in parachute, be invited to an hindu/albanian ceremony, sleep in the trees with my grandmother and my sister, travel Europe by hitchikking, and all these couchsurfing experiences

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach french (language, and modestly culture), I guess I can also teach a bit of IT
I am starting learning spanish and norwegian and a exchange would be great
