CURRENT MISSION

Témoigner de mon temps, de mon époque, de mes rencontres, de mes connaissances, etc

ABOUT ME

I know some about travelling. I lived in the US in early 80'. I can manage conversing in english, and french, and that's all. Spanish speaking other individual at home. German speaking friend not too far. Lived 2 years of my adult life in New York City and 10 in Paris. Have done all sorts of jobs.
My home is 100 kms away from Paris with a railway connection 4 times a day. It's country conditions of life. Nearest town is 3000 people size and 2 kms away. With swimming-poll, post office, shops and bars. Farms and fileds surround us. It's called La Beauce and has a very flat panorama.

PHILOSOPHY

I don't care much - though I have my own - about ideologies, religions, nations, looks and politics as long as it's based on tolerance. To my opinion, communication is the key. Good to know, i'm no good at keeping contacts. 24 hours a day is rarely enough.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In Paris, in the 90', i hosted travellers in my appartment-quite tiny. From USA, Belgium, Australia, Germany, England, New-Zealand, France.
Still in my memory, all of them.

Interests

People-few are not worth interest-
News-what's going on matters to me
Music-it's so good
Writing-trying to make money out of it makes it special
Images of the world-universe and language included
Everyday life-never the same
