About Me

Well, I would say (and I think people would agree), that I am a calm guy, easy going, and open minded.
Did I mention that I love rock-climbing? ^^. Generally I enjoy nature sports, quiet and peace. I like adventure, and spontaneous stuffs ("à l'arrache" as we say here). I try to live simply, enjoying simple things and being relaxed.

I am working as an engineer during the week, so spare time is scarce, but I try to do the most of it.

PHILOSOPHY

Notifying that everything could be worse for me, I'm quite happy. Quite because, everyone is not allowed to be as happy as I am, and it makes me feel sad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted some people in Lyon, and Freiburg, and it has always been very pleasant, and rewarding.
I surfed some couches during travels, and more recently I did a trip in Germany, jumping from couch to couch. I say the trip was just an excuse to meet new people, enter in their life, and exchanging ideas, philosophy and good time. It really brought me a lot.

Interests

Well, I like to have a talk, to get to know people, understand how they live, what are their dreams...
I also enjoy learning languages, but not common clases, just by listening, reading, experiencing, trying to comunicate.

And as more, let's say physical activities, I like rock climbing (a lot), slackline, hiking, cooking, and being lazy.
