Overview
About Me
I considered me as a citizen of the world and the world as a little village. I got the chance to get two beloved parents and a brother who is settled in Canada. I was married with Gey, a colombian woman. During this period, we raised her children. I haven't children but i love them. Eventually, i am a coach and consultant and like very much my job.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To meet open and curious people, ready to share what they are and know in an authentic way. To contribute together to the peace on earth. I truly believe meeting and knowing better each other avoid to judge each other and limit potential conflicts among nations. Also having fun and sometimes a good laugh. When intelligence dances with humor.

Music, Movies, and Books
Especialy Latino Music, french authors (but also arabic, electronic, classic,...). I look for good rhythm/melody combined with a beautiful and clever text.
Movies : it is eclectic. Will Hunting, Captain Farelli, The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, Groundhog day, John Carter,
Stefan Zweig (le joueur d'échecs), les quatre accords toltèques de Don Miguel Ruiz, La sainte folie du couple de Paule Salomon, Le voyage de Paul Morand, Les cosaques de Leon Tolstoi,...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My brother and myself got from our parents the opportunity to do a bungee jumping in New-Zeeland. He was so happy but i was so scared. I hesitated a lot and the public encourage me (probably because they identify themselves very much in my own fear.) I jumped and flied really like a chicken. I was proud of me (not proud of my chicken fly ;-) ) because I affronted my fear and succeed.
