ABOUT ME

Since my childhood, I've always wanted to visit foreign countries, their landscapes and meet the inhabitants, their culture and way of life.
In 2010, I moved from Lille, North of France, to New Caledonia in Pacific Ocean where I discovered the beautiful silent world of the sea.
In July 2013, I quit my engineer job and decided to work as a math teacher in New Caledonia countryside, closer to local population.
Now, i'm trvelling with some stops in Lille France which is my"base"
I think I'm open minded and always curious to see and know New things.
My interest for a lot of things make me very easy-going and I enjoy adapting myself to any kind of way of life when I'm abroad.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted people in my home in New Caledonia when it was possible
I organised some visits in New Caledonia.
I've made a 3 month visit in south-east Asia in 2013 and met some CS people.
As I'm convicted with CS's travelling philosophy, that's why I want to take part in this experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted some people in my home in New Caledonia and had meetings with the Caledonian CS community. I've been hiking with some of them.
I've met fantastic people via CS while i was travelling in south-east Asia in 2013
Will the next people i meet be you?
