À propos de moi

CURRENT MISSION

Taking life one day at a time.

ABOUT ME

I'm easygoing, love to travel and meet new people and listen to their stories about life. Extremely adaptable and loves to try new things. I have a pretty dark sense of humor, pessimistically optimistic about life in general.

PHILOSOPHY

You know, I'm sick of following my dreams, man. I'm just going to ask where they're going and hook up with 'em later.
- Mitch Hedberg

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In 2015, I finished a backpacking trip from Paris to my home in Taipei by land which took my almost a year to complete. Couchsurfing has helped me immensely during the process and I want to do my best to help other backpackers that are visiting Taiwan, which in my opinion is perhaps the real jewel of Asia that is bizarrely off the map for many backpackers.

I want to contribute to the community now I have a pretty nice and spacious apartment in Taipei City.

Centres d'intérêt

Cinema is a big part of my life. I watch movies of all kinds (commercial/arthouse hollywood/bollywood). Going to the movies has never stopped being a magical experience for me because it allows me to participate and understand other points of view. You're entertained by storytelling but at the same time you learn more about this world.
I also enjoy traveling, of course, reading, and listen to music (60's and 70's Rock, and Jazz)

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

12/31, 2014. In the evening before New Years Eve where I was planning to celebrate it on the beaches of Goa, India, I unfortunately forgot my day pack in the jungles of this guru who lived under the mango tree. I had to to go back by using a broken Ipod to light my way through the darkness of Indian jungle all the while making sure my friend wouldn't fall into the river, let alone the reptiles and other creatures of the night that lurked in every corner. After obtaining my bag from the hut of the mango guru, his disciples made me a flashlight using candles and coconuts that navigated my way back to civilization.
As I celebrated the arrival of 2015 in one of the clubs on the beach of Goa, I was so happy to be alive for New Years.
