Overview
About Me
“I am one of the searchers. There are, I believe, millions of us. We are not unhappy, but neither are we really content. We continue to explore life, hoping to uncover its ultimate secret.
We continue to explore ourselves, hoping to understand. We like to walk along the beach, we are drawn by the ocean, taken by its power, its unceasing motion, its mystery and unspeakable beauty.
We like forests and mountains, deserts and hidden rivers, and the lonely cities as well. Our sadness is as much a part of our lives as is our laughter. To share our sadness with one we love is perhaps as great a joy as we can know - unless it be to share our laughter.
We searchers are ambitious only for life itself, for everything beautiful it can provide. Most of all we love and want to be loved. We want to live in a relationship that will not impede our wandering, nor prevent our search, nor lock us in prison walls; that will take us for what little we have to give. We do not want to prove ourselves to another or compete for love."
― James Kavanaugh, There Are Men Too Gentle to Live Among Wolves
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I discovered CS in France and brought me a lot of friends- that's enough reason for me to add couchsurfing on the list of great things you'd may wanna stick to.
Also, I adore travelling (oh, wait, I think I already mentioned it before :). Couchsurfing is for me one of the best ways to travel - whether when away and in your own house- and it enables you to do it in the most authentic sense of the word, discovering and learning about other countries, other cultures, other universes.
Interests
I adore traveling and getting to know new people.
I'm a cheerful and optimistic person and I love to make the best out of every moment.
I have an appetite for continuous improvement, I'm genuinily curious, I especially love learning and challenging myself and others to strive for the best.
I like to talk, in any of the 5 languages quotted above , but I especially love deep conversations.
- beauty
- drinking
- bungee jumping
- languages
- beaches
- rivers
- mountains
Music, Movies, and Books
I'm one of those who'd enjoy every type of music from classic to rock, depending of my mood.
I read whatever catches my attention. That also means I've started a lot of books I've never finished and some several times.
In terms of movies I'm a novice, I don't really have a never-ending list of watched movies but what I usually look for in a movie is a twisted intelligent plot and a good quality cast.
If you were expecting names and titles here, sorry: I'm absolutely incapable of memorizing artists/actors/movies names (except Chopin, Chopin is really great)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Rope swing bungee jump
Teach, Learn, Share
My guiding line is "If you think you can you can, if you think you can't you're right"
Every day is an opportunity for learning something new, so I'll be glad to learn whatever others can share with me and I'll do my best to share the little of knowledge I could accumulate till now.
I'm good with languages and by the nature of my job with people. It's usually a great combination for exchanging with others :)
