About Me

CURRENT MISSION

make you discover Amsterdam's nightlife and infamous coffee shops... which are pretty awesome :)

ABOUT ME

6'5" Frenchman who just loves to eat and drink (yeah, as we all do!)

PHILOSOPHY

"electronic music lifestyle" (Mauro Picotto, for the connoisseurs :p)

"anima sana in corpore sano"

"Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent." (Victor Hugo).

"We have this idea that love is supposed to last forever.
But love isn't like that.
It's a free-flowing energy that comes and goes when it pleases.
Sometimes it stays for life; other times it stays for a second, a day, a month, or a year.
So don't fear love when it comes simply because it makes you vulnerable.
But don't be surprised when it leaves, either.
Just be glad you experienced it." (dunno who wrote that one, it's cute!)

"However selfish man may be supposed, there are evidently some principles of his nature, which interest him in the fortune of others, and render their happiness necessary to him, though he derives nothing from it…" (Adam Smith)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Participating in the project is how I do participate?!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only good experiences of hosting so far, hope to surf one of those days!

Interests

Enjoys meeting new people and share my (very) relaxed way of life in Amsterdam (yeah, enjoying my last year as a student).
Amsterdam is genuinely a nice place to visit, even more with a local/expat. Hurry up lads, the government is thinking of prohibiting the sale of cannabis to tourists... O:)

Music, Movies, and Books

My kind of music is mostly techno/electro/minimal music (yeah Amsterdam IS the good spot, kinda like Berlin).

Books are mostly studies-related right now ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spending one week in Bora-Bora with a totally local familly (not one of those fu***** 1000€ a night luxury hotels), doing all the local stuff on the island (with the local friends!), eating local and awesome food that you just picked up from the lagoon...
Would kill to do it again ^^

Teach, Learn, Share

Totally interested in learning about your field of interest, expertise(and/or studies) or your passions: general culture has no boundary.

Bonus: teach me how to cook (typical of your country), I'm a reaaaally bad cook :s

In return, I would be glad to share my views on sustainability, bike culture, city planning and politics...
