About Me

Hey!

Ben , I'm 25 and i'm curently living in Paris !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the best way to discover a city is with a resident.

You cannot have an overview of a place by doing the basic tourist tour. Wether in France, in London or in Finland, I always love to host people, share and collect experiences.

It's that simple! It's important to leave our comfort zone and meet people that how we grow up!

That's why when I am travelling, I try my best to do some couchsurfing!

I also need to practise my english, ( French accent... my bad)

Interests

I've been playing basketball for 18 years. I started at 4, I was small... I'm 22, I'm still small (1m73). But I don't really care because my passion is music.

From Bossa Nova to Disco or Hip&Hop. I really started to involve myself into electronic music few years ago. Especially in House & Techno music. Organizing concerts, parties, voluntary work for festivals, djing in my spare time.

Music, Movies, and Books

Concerning music I think you already got it.

Movies I would say my last significant one was maybe Drive, Rebellion ( L'ordre et la morale), La Haine or Eden for the music. I am not a big expert in movies, author etc.

Books: Electrochoc from Laurent Garnier

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first thing which comes to my mind is droping my science studies and moving to London three years ago without any english knowledge. Quiet tough at the beginning but it was an amazing experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

What do I have to offer? Bad jokes , few of them. Music !

Ok my cooking skills are quite limited but you I'm sure You'll want to try my Chicken Korma Recipe (Indian food).
Or we can do it with Tofu as well ;)

What I Can Share with Hosts

My experience, my smile and if you need any help for anything , cook, move something, wash dishes !
