About Me

CURRENT MISSION

We have to laugh because laughter, we already know, is the first evidence of freedom.

ABOUT ME

I recently moved to Paris after spending nearly 4 years in Ireland and a couple of years in Asia.

PHILOSOPHY

"I got off the train and met a stranger...I got back on the train and said goodbye to a friend".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Being part of this lovely 'country' that is 'Couchsurfing'... I'm here since 2009!

Interests

Cinema, Philosophy, Traveling,...

Music, Movies, and Books

I have diverse influences as I am a curious person. I'm a huge fan of cinema, especially of Asian cinema. If I had to choose 5 names I would pick Chow Yun-Fat, Johnnie To, Nicolas Winding Refn, the Coen Brothers and Zhang Yimou.

As for books I read a lot about Chinese and Asian history, but also some classics such as Nabokov, Camus, Kerouac...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Having a nap on the Great Wall. Having a 8 hours taxi-ride from Shanghai to Nanjing. Visiting Naypyidaw, the "ghost capital" of Myanmar.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always up to have languages exchanges (my French-English for your Chinese-English !)
