About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to meet people from any culture, learning from them, giving what i could

ABOUT ME

One of the most difficult exercise... to sum up yourself in a few words.
Well a bit of salt and sugar, a bit of other things... the I must be somewhere in that mixture.

Oh, I think I must be curious. And I like roses.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know witch path will lead me to the moon so I take advantage of the journey witch seems to go up there.

Je ne sais quel chemin mène à la Lune, je profite donc de celui qui semble aller dans cette direction.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted quite a lot of people, I really like when groups come here with their energy. They all seem to have enjoyed the time they spent here, and so did I. We could go climbing, swimming, dancing,even discovering my own country together.
I've been hosted a few times too. And it was always good to travel this way. I really don't like hotels. Couchsurfing is one of the best option to meet the locals, and you couldn't pay for the warmth of a true meeting with someone.This is the basic of couchsurfing, I think.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first hosting experience was a real good one. And since each experience I had with couchsurfing have been great... really great actually.Always really simple and full of humanity. I've been well received and it has always been a pleasure to host.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

realizing that you get more cheese if you think "I will take off the cheese out of its rind" instead of "I take the rind off the cheese"
You can try it. Oh I should try it with potatoes !!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make a division, french grammar, or french history... ok ok that's quite boring

Well I can teach you tango argentino or how to have more cheese taking off the rind.
