About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Long-term goal: change the way we learn foreign languages

ABOUT ME

I am a calm but inquisitive person, always on the lookout for novelties to feed my insatiable curiosity.
I can't stay still and thrive in the company of passionate people.

PHILOSOPHY

The clock is ticking. Pretty fast.
Today's hesitations lead to tomorrow's regrets.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting people in Paris. Putting nearby hotels out of business is a pleasure of mine.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfing in Sweden (2009), Italy (2014), Austria (2015), Ireland (2016).
I've hosted people quite a few times in my apartment in Paris, even though it has become difficult for me.

Interests

Mostly travelling and learning new languages.
I used to work as a video game designer. Now I'm focusing on a Web project.
I am often protesting that 24-hour days are not enough for all my other interests: reading, writing, cooking, watching movies and listening to music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing to the top of the Harbour Bridge in Sydney (134m above sea level), despite suffering of vertigo. I felt like I was going to die, but the view was quite a reward.
Everytime I set foot in a country where I've never been before, a new world full of possibilities.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a language learner, I have created a website dedicated to helping people learn languages more easily, "Le Monde des Langues" (French only).
I would be pleased to provide fellow language learners with useful tips.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you several languages and how to learn them more efficiently.
I can also cook for you, especially French and Italian food.

Countries I’ve Visited

Australia, Austria, Czech Republic, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Latvia, Lithuania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, United Kingdom, Vatican City State
