About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Take over the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm cool.

Like, chilled. And I cook. Sometimes. Kind of a geek, but in a nice way : not gonna try and trap you into some weird role play situation. I enjoy having drinks, and staying up ridiculously late just to watch movies.

Really, I'm obssessed with movies.

I'm an all around nice guy, and I would consider it a personnal failure if I can't manage to make you laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

As a wise turkish friend once told me : Just follow the flow.

More personnaly : transcendantalism rocks. <3 Kant.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I lived in Turkey for a year and welcomed a bunch of people during my stay there.

I've also welcomed people at my place near Paris.

As for travelling, I really enjoy the possibility of doing it whilst meeting people that actually know the place I'm going to.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Quite a bit by now !

I've had Austrians, Americans, Germans, French, Hungarian, English and even Turkish couchsurfers staying at my place !

Interests

- MOVIES MOVIES MOVIES !! I watch every type, I do not discriminate, even though I sometimes have a hard time getting into Bollywood. But still, I've seen some !

- Partying... I'm quite good at it, but if it's not your thing I can totally adapt :)

- Different cultures : there's an obvious reason I've travelled that much. I wanna learn as much as possible from this petty world !

- Board games, because honestly they're fun !

- Food. Especially asian food. Even in France, I sometimes have rice or dim sum for breakfast.

- Beer. It's a family tradition, my mom and dad taught me how to drink it, how to taste it, how to love it. I know over 60 brands, and like as many !
