About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel and build friendships everywhere I can = these things improve who I am and who I will become

ABOUT ME

Firstable, I'm curious. I'm a student in journalism who wants to travel all around the world. I have a great capacity of adaptation (essential for couchsurfing), I'm polite and clean. I'm really open minded. And, of course, like everyone on this website, I want to meet people.

PHILOSOPHY

You will think it's a really simple and basic philosophy but it's a big work on myself : be a better person everyday.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Like everyone here : meet people. To be honest I can not host people yet because I have lived all my adult life in one bedroom appartments or dorms like now in Louisville. But I know when I will go back in France, work and have a new appartment, I'll be able to host couchsurfers and I'm sure I'll love that as I love to travel with the help of CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All my couchsurfing experiences were great. I say all the time my new host is the best one but in fact the best one is still the next one.

Interests

I have interest for lots of things : journalism, cinema, photography, history, policy, music, sports... When I say sport I mean basketball. I'm a huge basketball fan and I try to play and watch game everywhere. But don't worry, if you're not interested about basketball, it's not a problem for me, I won't bore you with it ;)

Music, Movies, and Books

Mystic River, 21 grams, Walk the line, classics, lots of french movies (you should discover french cinema).
I listen all kind of music in general, from classic music to rap. I love movies music like Thomas Newman (American Beauty) ones, Ennio Morricone, Vangelis...
I need to read more books (I prefer to read newspapers and magazines), my favorite will always be L'Etranger (Albert Camus).
For two years, I watched lots of TV shows (Games of Thrones, Homeland, Breaking Bad, Suits, Mad Men, House of Cards, Shameless...) and my favorite is Boss (Gus Van Sant did the pilote, Kelsey Grammer is amazing).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Good question. I don't really know (it doesn't mean I did nothing in my life haha). Gather different friends in another places than where they live and create links between them is always amazing for me. It's a normal thing but I feel blessed when I see they interact between eachother after that, when I'm not with them.
