About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I finally graduated as an engineer and I am currently working and living in Seoul in South Korea. I have been living in here for 3 year in total and I feel that I need to give myself new challenges. After have been living in France, in South Korea and in Thailand, and after having discover many other countries during my trips, I am expecting a lot of this new year 2017.
I'm a very open-minded person and I can get along with pretty much every people and have fun with them. I can say that I'm also a little bit crazy in a good way and an adventurer.
I like to meet people from all around the world and I had chance in my life to meet more than 100 hundred different nationalities.
I always enjoy meeting local people and discovering more about their cultures.
I have been traveling a lot around Asia, so I think my next continents will be Africa or South America.
I have been hosted people in the past when I had my own place but I am currently not able to host anyone because of I planned to move a lot. If you want to know more about me, you can leave me a message on facebook or on couchsurfing, I am always happy to make new friendships everywhere in the world while traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Stay peace and enjoy every seconds of my life

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing was an amazing opportunity for me to meet people from many countries, many backgrounds, many religions and I can say that I always had good experiences hosting people, being hosted, or just meet around some food, drinks or sightseeings.
I didn't host people because I have been hosted by someone before, I hosted them because I wanted to do it, I wanted to meet new people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had couchsurfing experiences in Italy, South Korea, Japan, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos and Vietnam, Sometimes as an host, sometimes as a guest and I have never been disapointed.
