CURRENT MISSION
Meet, discover, understand more people ; writing.

ABOUT ME
I can seemed shy at first sight, but once I feel comfortable, I could speak all over the day with you. I'm an optimist person, curious, passionate and who like spending time outside. I like to share my opinion about movies, literature, art, nature ; listen to your point of view about your own country.

I live in Paris. I work as TV editor the most of time, or writing short films scripts when I got enough money to stop this jobs. Then, I try to travel.

Non-smoker here (because I don't want to loose my good sense of smell!)

PHILOSOPHY
It's easy to feel free, but hard to understand where is our own freedom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have surfing and hosting, and I'm now planning to surf again in France.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I surfed in France, Turkey, California and Arizona and all CSers I met were friendly, interesting, funny, open-minded and made my long trip there better. I have appreciated going to some CS events too, like a disguise party in San Francisco, a garden show in Oakland...
I have also hosted in Paris when I was in my roommate flat. One of them was a CS who hosted me in LA, and it was a pleasure to make the entire exchange. Unfortunately, I'm now living alone in a smaller place and can't host again. But I still want meeting new people as much as possible.

I've hosted French / been hosted in France too.

I've made real friends with CS and it always was a pleasure to talk and debate for several hours with people I don't know.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- In Arizona : Pick old Hopi couple up by hitchhiking to bring them to there village, whereas I didn't find my own goal, and actually realize that their home's place was also the place I was looking for :)

- In a small and isolated village in Togo, a local friend was talking to me with a big enthusiasm about a guy we had just met, who weren't from this village, and who were saying have helped the village a lot. My friend was repeating and repeating again how the guy was helpful and right. When I said that this guy seemed fake to me, this friend started to tell me, with the same intensity, how the guy was exaggerating about his feats. This kind of violent rupture moved me... :-S
