About Me

Hi ! I'm Augustin and I love travelling, meeting new people and learning about them, their culture, vision of life...
I really like outdoor sports : climbing (although I always practiced indoors), surfing, hiking, biking...
I am curious and somewhat adventurous, wishing to experience as much as life has to offer. I'm a food lover, love cooking and trying food from all over the world.
I also enjoy playing board games or any other fun games.
I'm rather more calm and introvert but can also risk-taking and thrill seeker (as it's part of life adventure too !)
Last but not least, I am a nature lover, concerned by climate change and willing to reduce my environmental footprint by having a simple but meaningful lifestyle.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am still a young traveller but believe CS it's the best traveling option being a way to meet locals and learn about the city, the country, its culture, its history... I think it makes the experience more human and joyful.
I'm happy to spend time with my hosts or the people I host, playing games, cooking and sharing food, hanging out or just having good conversations.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy reading books (like dystopia or books about society) but I often stops every 2 minutes to think during 10 minutes or fall asleep pretty fast.
Listening music depends on my mood but in general it's more chill music from Jazz, French rap, French old song, Rock (Red Hot Chili Peppers, Queen, Elton John).
I like watching comedy movies and movies about life (love About Time for exemple).
TV series : GoT (until season 5-6), Peaky Blinders, Stranger Things, How I met your mother, Years and Years...
Animes : Attack on Titans, Myasaki movies, One Piece...
