ABOUT ME

29 year-old teacher travelling in Japan for the first time. I'll be in Tokyo, Yokohama and Kyoto from the 13th to the 27th and I'm looking for someone who could host me and/or show me around.

I'm working in Montreal (Québec - Canada). I teach sociology at University of Montreal and wish to work as a social sciences journalist later on.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short ! Always something to learn from somebody !

Music, Movies, and Books

I could tell you about it for hours...
In general, I'm always happy with some trip hop and down tempo (DJ shadow, Bonobo, Ratatat, Portishead, Goldfrapp, Massive Attack, Air , ...) and for party time hip-hop and house music... And classical jazz.

Always a book with me !!!!! I'm adicted to books. Essays and fiction. For pleasure or my studies. Favorite authors ? Nabokov, Mishima, Ernaux, Kundera, Sartre, Borges, Gombrowicz, Mann, Kafka, García-Márquez, François Rabelais... I just like to read..
