About Me

Hi

I grew up in Grenoble (France) and Brussels (Belgium). Then I moved to London, Paris, Britanny, and now Lyon. I also lived for a while in Shanghai and other places.

I decided to create my own company early 2015. So I am working like mad at the moment!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot around the world but often for business. Going to hotels, I often felt that something was missing.

In a hotel, you could me anywhere.
With a local person, you are somewhere. The person will share warmth and knowledge.

I don't think I'll be able to couchsurf during a business trip. My contacts often ask me the name of my hotel. Could be fun though to answer that I am couchsurfing :-)

Interests

Travelling is what I like most. But the adventurous kind. I don't purchase all included trips. I keep a large part for the unknown, turning right when all tourists turn left.

I love hiking in the mountains for several days as well.

I did a lot of sports a few years back and I am trying to find time to continue and remain fit! I am selling high tech fitness equipment so I can use my own machines at home.

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to most kinds of music from classical to electro. I don't really have a favorite singer but one of my favorite songs at this very moment is "All in you"

I love "Les Miserables " which I have seen in London 3 times!

Not too much time for books I'm afraid but I've been reading Tom Clancy. He gives so many details and historical perspectives that you believe you're reading exciting news.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sleep on the Great Wall in China (the unrestored part) and trail on it the following misty morning.
Not one tourist in sight!
