I am pretty laid back and uncomplicated. I like simple things in life and don't need much to be happy. However, I feel blessed for having had and still having the chance to travel the world 4-5 months each year as I am lucky enough to have a job allowing this. I work hard in the tourism industry in the south of France in summer and take my backpack the rest of the time and explore lots of amazing places. I am never happier as when I am on the other side of the planet with just a 10kg backpack.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I definitely have to thanks couchsurfers for some of my most memorable travel experiences. After all these many years using the website, the idea remains brilliant, simple, and great !
Though each couchsurfing experience was unique, I somehow found the same generosity and open mindness everywhere. So I always try to give it some of it back when I host people in Provence/France.
