My name is Paul, I'm 29 and I come from Alsace, France! 🇫🇷
I used to work as a rocket engineer in Germany 🚀🇩🇪 but I quit my job to cycle for 9 months with my sister and my cousin in South East Asia. 🚲🌍
After a lot of cycling, hiking and sailing in that part of the world, I came back with Tim, my Australian partner and we now live in Grenoble with our dog Hector, surrounded by the mountains ⛰️🏔️ now I cook at an organic caterer 😁👨🏼‍🍳

Trying to live an increasingly sustainable life 🌱

A few years ago, I spent 6 months around the world for a project about alternative energies💡 have a look: https://youtu.be/Wyqj8Ja8sIE 🎥😉

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I've started to use Couchsurfing when I was in the US in 2016 to meet new people. It's a perfect way to meet locals, new travelers and to find wonderful plans/events abroad 😊

音乐、电影和书籍

Music begins where words end.
Mostly rock, 80's, country, but I love discovering new music types 😉
Play several instruments.

I like reading books from many different styles. Thrillers, ecological oriented, adventure...
