About Me

About me ?
I told the school where I teach that I did not want more money, but time to travel. And since I have been in Thailand, I could have 3 days weekends. I moved almost every weekend. I don't really want to separate work and holidays : I like to see my job as a cool moment with my lovely students and I love to work on an island with my computer in front of the sea.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in sharing.
I believe sharing is the future of the connected world.
I am interested in the way people look at their country as much as in the country.
I like real things.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have hitchhiked around 100,000 km throughout France and Europe for years, asking every night for hospitality in the countryside.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn : everything, from absolutely anybody !

I could probably teach or share : yoga, guitar, programming, cognitive science.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can help my host to plan their trip, as I have been almost everywhere in Thailand for all these years, and explain some funny tricks of thai culture.
I can bring them to eat thai food that they will never find in touristic places as I read the menus in thai and I have been eating 5 times in my home in 7 years in Thailand :-) !
