My name is Maxime, I am French and I am 24 years old. In everyday life, I ride a bike and I eat vegan out of respect for animals. I like all outdoor activities in nature and especially cross-country skiing, running, mountain biking or simply hiking.

👈 My state of mind "Get out of my comfort zone" and set myself challenges to achieve this 👉

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because before, I wasn't very open to others and I wanted to change that by meeting new people around the world. I always say that for me, my life is not the same after I discovered this amazing App.

Meetings with people during travelling are more important than the landscapes or cities I visit. In each meeting you learn new things and you can help people, which is very rewarding afterwards. The important thing is to know how to receive when it's time and give when people are in need. That’s my philosophy 🤸‍♂️

Music, Movies, and Books

What I like to read 📚📖
American litterature (Steinbeck, Hermingway)
Adventure (London, Krakauer, Verne, Roy Lewis)
1984, Promise at Dawn and a fan of Harry Potter

About the movies 🎥
The Imitation game, Catch me if you can, Into the wild (of course... ) , Forest Gump, 12 Angry men, Conjuring and all the movies based on a true story by the way

I don't watch TV because I don't learn anything... only ARTE documentaries are sometimes very good so if I have to choose a channel for the rest of my life it will be ARTE of course ! (French-German TV channel)

And then about series I really like Rick and Morty for entertainment, How to sell drugs online (fast), You, Breaking bad, The Wire, Shameless, This is Us, When they see Us, Chernobyl

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bike trip Vannes in France to Höchenschwand in Germany to surprise my godfather. I spent a few days with these sides and my German cousins, we had a very good and memorable time.​​ I made the return trip through the castles of the Loire, it was magnificent 🤩 a bike tour of more than 2000 km 🚴

This was the first of many because I love to travel by bike... I can tell you about fun encounters during my travels and give you tips if you are interested in travelling by bike. It will be a pleasure! 👍
