About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to bloom

ABOUT ME

I love travelling, meeting people from over the world (but also my close neighbors), share experiencies, listen to stories, discover the habits and customs of each other ... Until now, I made two "big trip" by myself : I've been in India few months when i finished my studies and more recently, I travelled from my own town (Grenoble) to the Iberian Peninsula by bicycle. A very nice trip with lots of meeting and discovery ! Hope there will be more !!!

I like particulary the nature, calm and outdoors sports : bicicling in beautiful landscape, wolking or skiing in the mountains, swimming in the ocean or in mountain'lakes... and of course the nice fresh belgium beer after the effort or the goods dishies with good wines (sporty but good living first of all) !

I love to camp, i aspire to a simpler life. That's the reason why i try a new job : keep sheeps. I do that in summer, in the alpes and would like to do that again if it's possible !!!

Otherwise, I work with childrens with handicaps as a psychomotor therapist (to help them in their body, to grow, to move, to fell better...). Very interesting job !

PHILOSOPHY

Never forget where you come from, to now where you go...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Adventure books and life stories. I ready mostly when i'm in holidays or as a shepher (i have more time, alone in mountains when the sheeps make their siesta) . To give you a exemple, I try to finish the book "100 years of solitude" from Gabriel García Márquez, since half a year (even if it's a good book !)

I listen to various music, particulary world music but can be also electro, rock, pop, afro beat, reegae ....Can be : Nina Simone, Wax Tailor, Goran Bregovic, Janis Joplin, Stromae, Noir désir, Pink floyd, Igorr, Jeanne Added, Brigitte Fontaine, Yann Tiersen ...Also old fashioned french music like Brel, Brassens, Barbara... ;) And sometimes, classic music or opera.
