About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Making people happy :) and to conquer the world! :D

ABOUT ME

Wanna see what I do? Check this :
http://www.dailymotion.com/bennylance

My philosophy :
"I'm shy, I'm crazy, I'm here and I'm gone, I'm French, I'm Hungarian, I'm a Mormon, I'm a Jew, I'm myself. And I love you !

Money is nothing. Only people have value in this world. You don't live with money, you live with people. Start caring about the right thing !"

If I'm home I'll be glad to show you around Lyon where I live (if I'm not already gone somewhere else in the world) but I'm sorry I can't host you...

I can be a bit shy at first but it doesn't last. I like doing fun unusual things for fun and to help people laugh and be happy. And my video camera is an extension of my hand. I'm always carrying it with me everywhere and filming everything I do (especially stupid silly tings).
I love meeting new people :)
I go abroad to a different country at least once a month (since Feb 2009) and in 2010 I've been to 21 different countries :D

I live and work in Lyon, France but I'm usually in Lyon only when I work. And as soon as I have a few days off I can be anywhere in France or Europe but usually not in Lyon. I LOVE travelling!
And I'm a mormon :)

PHILOSOPHY

It's only by making other people happy that you can truly be happy yourself.
Forget yourself and put others first and you'll know what happiness is :)
Why shall we all be the same? Being different is good. Don't try to be like others. Just be your best self and that's already plenty enough, and remember you are not to be acted upon but to act by yourself ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Anyone who needs help from me, ask and I'll do my best ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met people in Prague, Warsaw, Krakow, Taipei, Hong Kong, ... everywhere I've been almost, and they showed me around town, and I helped someone who went to my home town (Montbeliard) who needed help planning her trip in the area. I also showed a bit around Lyon (where i live) to some people travelling here.
I'm too shy to ask people to surf theirs couches so I've never tried the proper couchsurfing but maybe I will in the future :) (but all the people I met on here where very nice and friendly)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've spent one hour in town center going around on a pedal-tractor, asking people where the farm was to buy some milk. An other day I asked people where was the puddle so I could swim, being dressed with a swimming short, palms, mask and tuba. Just to make people enjoy their day :)
Also, I went from Budapest to almost Bratislava, along the Danube river, alone with my push-bike. And I liked it so much that I then went make a tour of Korea on also on a push-bike. I looovvvved it!!!

Not as crazy, I've spent 2 years in the UK (Worcester, Stamford, Newport (Wales), Leicester and Cheltenham) doing volunteer work going around and asking people if I could do anything to help them for free. I loved it :D

Teach, Learn, Share

Hum... 1+1=2 unless you talk about mice or rabbits.
I can't teach you anything else... I think.
I can make Rubik's cube but I can't really teach it (or you'd see how easy it is actually)
