CURRENT MISSION

I recently moved in the Jura region for a new job Happy to explore and keen to meet people around.

ABOUT ME

I am an easy going person who likes to meet people from all kind of horizons. Enjoying life is as simple as discovering a new beer or hearing a good joke.
I usually spend half of my time making my life crazy and the other half making it simple.

PHILOSOPHY

Progress, progress, but don't forget to take some breaks.

"Quand le mystère est trop impressionnant, on n'ose pas désobéir." Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm interested by meeting the locals rather than to go from backpacker to backpacker.
I like to do the touristic attractions but I also want to know what people are doing here and how they are talking themselves about their city/country. That's how you can have the best idea of what a place is: through its inhabitants'words.

Interests

Theatre, concerts, exhibitions, reading, partying, trekking or discussing...
Those are my own interests but I'm open-minded and keen for all types of experience :)
We could play chess or go fishing, lot of things that I enjoy to do even if it's not often that I do it.

Music, Movies, and Books

For the music I am basic and random. Listening to the radio or to Spotify lists (lazy!).

For movies I'm not a fan of American blockbusters. Actually I could watch anything while it makes me laugh, feel or learn something.
Just a few nice ones coming to my mind : Little Miss Sunshine, Eternal Sunshine of my Spotless mind, Vicky Christina Barcelona, Melancholia, Le chat du Rabbin, Mommy, Shutter Island, Pride, Up, The Notebook...

About books I mostly read classics and theatre. Yes I like Molière, André Gide, Marcel Proust, Andrée Chedid or Rohald Dahl.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchiking all around the South Island of New Zealand.

During that time I have been a bus driver in Nelson, I jumped in a cold river in the middle of the mountains during a festival in Upper Takaka, I met a fisherman and I caught a barracuda, I met a 70 years old man who took me around in his van and some other stories... !
