About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Play the guitar better

ABOUT ME

I am an open-minded person! I love to have a good time with my friends or new ones. I like calm gatherings and chitchat, at a friend's place, in a bar or outside when the weather is fine, and from time to time a crazy night out! I work during the week but I can definitely go out on evenings and week ends, for a beer, a concert or a theater.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is that you should never think your friends (or companion) are acquired, never hesitate to contact them even after a very long time or if you have met them only once. Nor should it prevent you from meeting new people!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Now I am not counting the people I hosted anymore, but I have been Couchsurfing myself a couple of times and that was great everytime. I even met people who are now very good friends of mine! I usually try to go out with my guests for the kind of things I mentioned before, and if not, we'll just have a nice chat home when I come back from work.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed in Budapest at a very nice young man's. It convinced me! Now I have even visited quite a few people who surfed my place...
But Couchsurfing gave me a lot more: a little sister, an impossible love, real new friends...

I also won the Couchsurfing Quizz at Lion's Bar in Paris with my team (2 French, 1 Argentinian, 1 Japanese, 1 Canadian) !!!

Interests

I am interested in meeting new people, especially from other countries.
I am also interested in languages. I like to read, watch movies and series, and speak in English and Spanish. Lately I began learning Romanian (that was for obvious reasons) and then Portuguese (for the same obvious reason) ;)
I am working in the nuclear industry, so generally, I tend to have big talks with people working or studying in the field of energy!
Last but not least, I have played the guitar for a year and half, and I can play/sing some songs for you.

Tokyo!
Extremely close and incredibly loud

I am thrilled by the series "Lost" though my favourite series ever is definitely "Six feet under".
The reason why I like a particular book is a subtle mix of atmosphere, style, story, and characters (if you are looking for something really... different, read "extremely close and incredibly loud"

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been on the border of the Etna, for example!
Or crossing the Slovak-Polish border by the Risy Peak in the Tatras!

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to make a crumble or a banana and apple pie. If you want to improve your french, I can definitely do that.
If you could teach me some more cooking, I would be delighted!
I definitely like to share some guitar playing and be taught some tricks!
