CURRENT MISSION

Find inspiration from the peoples of the world

ABOUT ME

I don't travel much. Rather I enjoy living in different places, and really getting inspiration from the lives of various people, and, hopefully, sharing some of my own in exchange.

PHILOSOPHY

"Ya le savoir qui mène au pouvoir, entre les deux il y a l'action." (Massilia Sound System) I try to stay in the action, on the thin line between knowledge and power. When I make choices in life, I usually picture myself as an old storyteller surrounded by children. Which story would I rather tell?

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I rave to everyone I know about it. Hosted a few people in the past couple years. Hoping to host again, when and if I have a home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed in Mexico, in Bolivia and in the US. A few unofficial surfs at friends of friends on bike trips in Canada. While travelling, I met wonderful human beings who became true friends. Got my mom, almost 80, to host a friend of mine this year! Enjoyed a hosting festival between my roommate and I in spring 2010.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Climbed a mountain: hiking, climbing, ice, rock and all. It was a modest mountain, it was 17 years ago, but it is still a reference to me when I fear something new.
I also inherited a gift for communicating with pigs: amazing I'd say, though not too useful. Otherwise, I have a rational thinking pattern

教，学，和分享

Would like to join in any local aikido practise as a visitor. I seem to have become a "crêpes" expert, without being fully aware of it. Anyhow I'd be happy to cook some "crêpes" in your home if I can find the ingredients!
