ABOUT ME

Hello dear person who is reading this, I'm Arthur. My family and friends in France call me "Boub" (yes, it is pronounced "Boob"), but my beloved childhood nickname is obviously unfit for English-speaking countries.
I grew up right outside of Paris and now I'm getting around. I'm fueled by music (and beer (and wine (and cigarettes (and coffee)))) and love arts in general though I don't create much, having no artistic talent that I know of!
I love getting around, seeing new places and new faces, and then drink hard in said places with said faces. According to foreigners I'm as french as it gets though people in France would tend to disagree.
Also I like to live during the night and sleep during the day.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, the world is going downhill and everything sucks. Getting to know people that don't is one of the only things worthwhile!
(I like to call myself "cheerfully pessimistic")

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well technically I don't have a couch, unless you feel like sleeping in my closet, or on a chair. I'm mostly here to meet open-minded people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My girlfriend once hosted some girl from the U.S., I was there most of the time, I guess that counts? Also, met a few interesting people.

Interests

Music is what keeps me going. I mostly listen to rap, though I'm quite selective about it. A bit of everything else also. I love arts in general, but am still most interested in movies and literature.
Otherwise I'm huge on food (red meat, red wine, red everything), pubs and restaurants (I love to dicover places with particular atmospheres), and partying hard.
