About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I left my job and everything in France for travelling around the world, I don't know for how long actually:) I left France by train crossing Russia to reach Asia. After 8 months in Asia, I enjoyed a working holiday in Australia and then New-Zealand and Iam now in Canada! Next?Surprise

ABOUT ME

I don't like talking about me. I think the best way is meeting me or asking my friends:)

PHILOSOPHY

La vida es un carnaval

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I discovered CS before my departure, so at the moment, I only use CS to find host and local people during my travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All my CS experiences were awesome, in Russia,Mongolia, Nepal, Bangladesh and Australia. Thanks again to all my hosts.

Interests

Travel of course!!Road-trip or hitch-hiking, both are good!
Then : music, friends meeting and sports. I love football but I love also all sports relating to nature like canyoning, trekking, and summit climbing (in hiking but not yet in alpinism), kayaking, climbing, snorkeling and diving. And surfing of course! Travel and nature are my life, but I like city lifestyle as well, resto, concert and party!
ps: I love barbecue!lol

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just a funny thing in mind : Few years ago with a friend, we purchased flight Paris-Finland via stopover in Dublin, Ireland. Good, let's go to Finland!!! But our first aircraft Paris-Dublin got problems in Lille (North of France) and never came in Paris! So we slept few hours in airport and took bus to Lille! Finally we reached Dublin 10min after the departure of our flight Dublin-Finland!! And no more avalaibility to Finland before 1 week. As we had our flight back from Finland we finally got a one way flight to..Oslo, Norway!! And started an unexpected trip in Norway, hitch-hiking on thousands kilometers til the North Cape and we entered in Finland by the most northern city near the russian border and Murmansk, and downover this country to get our flight back! Great unexpected memories!
