French guy, hitchhiking full-time since 2011.
Hitchhiked almost all corners of Europe, from northern Sweden to south of Spain, as far as Georgia and Armenia. Some experience also in Tunisia, a few Asian countries, and Australia. A little of boat hitchhiking also. I'm a big fan of winter and extreme hitchhiking, rather going out in the wild than hanging around cities.

You can find me on BeWelcome, CS and HC, but you won't get much help from an homeless person :-)
