CURRENT MISSION

Writing a book about canoeing in Burgundy

ABOUT ME

I like to travel a lot but I don't think that "the farther the better". To my mind what is important is not the distance from your destination but the personal and human experience you get from your trips. Sometimes, travelling in your country or even in your area to places you've never been before, meeting new people and speaking to those you meet can bring you a lot as well :)

PHILOSOPHY

J'aime le jeu, l'amour, les livres, la musique,
La ville et la campagne, enfin tout ; il n'est rien
Qui ne me soit souverain bien,
Jusqu'au sombre plaisir d'un coeur mélancolique.

La Fontaine, Heureux dénouement

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

So far, I have mostly been a host. When I grow up, I want to remain a couchsurfer! ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have mainly hosted people who needed to sleep for some days in a world trip, and surfed in several parts of Europe.
