About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet and make friend with people around the world

ABOUT ME

Sociable, open-minded, zen, discreet, altruist, sporty, warm heart, and always happy to invite friends at home.

PHILOSOPHY

Where there's a will there's a way

If you think that adventure is dangerous, try routine it's lethal - Paulo Coelho

Trop de dévotion à sa propre religion, calomnier les religions des autres, apporte la haine et les luttes: y-a-t'il plus stupide?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like more and more couchsurfing because I can discover and socialize with people from around the world.

People are often kinder than you think

Interests

I like walk in Paris and meet my friends for apero, restaurant or going to cosmopolite places like polyglot coffee, CS meeting or blabla exchange. I like places where I can meet people from around the world to practice my English, teach French or learn a new language.
For my free time I like reading and learn many things. I also like practice sports like running, biking, yoga, meditation, recently penchak-silat and I love badminton.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Summer 2013,
I decided to live with monks in a zen monastery for five days. It was very good experience, the place was really peaceful and perfect to an initiation of meditation. I also really liked the food and the way takes the meal together.

Summer 2012,
50 seconds of freefall at 4200 meters before opening the parachute...
Great sensation!

Autumn 2007,
Sold my car and quit my native country to go to live in a Ireland some months
