About Me

CURRENT MISSION

never bored with travelling and discovering new places and people

ABOUT ME

Passionate and creative, I've worked in an art cinema for 6 years in charge of young audience. I've been involved with artists taking care of them during short stay. I also worked as a cultural mediator and I managed cultural events.
I'm an open minded person and very respectful. I enjoy conversation and especially when it comes with a beer or a glass of good wine. At home, we often organize fancy dress parties, last one was a very funny sportswear party....where many zero sports friends had good fun !

PHILOSOPHY

What's the life otherwise a succession of inspired madnesses ?
Georges Bernard Shaw

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had a first experience with CS two years ago in NY, visiting this city with my brother. We met very different and always cool people.

Interests

Music again and again, listening a lot, playing a little bit keyboards, always ready for a jam.
Passionate by visual arts, photography and video art, lomography, polaroid, silkscreen printing, stitching art.
I love a lot vintage furniture and in particular design of mid-century.
I go often to the local flea market, one of the biggest of the area and secondhand clothes stores.
I love very much cooking (queen of the home made hummus !). Meals time are precious, we don't count hours when it comes to gather around the table. But don't be afraid, I can also travel without eating my weekly roasted chicken and fries !!!
