I grew up in France, now Belgium is my basement. I'm into art.

PHILOSOPHY

Adventure, explore new territories : lands, souls, cultures, cities..
Be a traveler, not a tourist!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm fascinated by our differences.
For example, I love to watch foreigner's faces, observe, listen them.
I think traveling without meeting locals is not worthy, it's just postcard photo collection.
Hosting travelers is like going on a journey while staying at home. I love it !
Be welcome to my home, make me dream, talk about your culture, your views about life!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Host mostly, guest sometimes.
When I'm in a foreign country, I can go to CS meetings.
I tend to use CS more to meet locals than to be hosted.
I used to go to the weekly CS meetings in Liège when they were happening. I organised a few times this event.

Interests

Art (preferably modern and contemporary).
Enjoy good time with friends, exhibitions, music, see live bands, cinema, also theatre and dance shows sometimes.
Got a website for some of my artworks :

And a page where to listen my music :

Music, Movies, and Books

Masterword is indie/alternative.
I love electronic/electro rock music, with a special taste for some electro punk bands. I love cold wave, dark wave, synth wave also.

Movies : Terry Gilliam, Inarritu, Jarmusch, Aronofsky, Zulawsky, Jodorowsky.. any more -sky? :)

Books : got many but I should learn to read, I'm illiterate ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In Varanasi (Benares), listening indian classical music all night long in a festival, and watching the sunrise on the Ganga. People with whom I shared this moment were thinking the same thing than me : that was more beautiful than the most beautiful thing we could have imagined !

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to share bands that I listen to. I'm always ready for making you practice french (and to have the same from you with your language!)
I can give tips about artistic painting (acrylic).

What I Can Share with Hosts

Music, blabla, tasty coffee and tea,
drinks..
Eventually a visit by foot of the city center
