About Me

I would define my way of thinking by every experience is a good experience

I like to try, learn, fail, give up, try again, succeed (sometimes but mainly because I'm sponsored by the God of luck). Because of that I also get bored easily with things I do and I always need changes in my life (everything but my friends that are now my best burden for more than 10 years).

I like to talk about many things but what I prefer is to listen and learn from other people (I guess I have been a student for too long). If you can teach me things about art, local history, or any of your passion I would be pleased! (Especially if you teach me while we are enjoying few drinks).

Finally, my current goal in life is to do my PhD and cure cancer (my parents always taught me to aim high :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling + meeting people + learn about culture + talk other language.
These are four of the things I prefer in life and that I used to do in hostel all around the world before now.

Interests

Biology! It's a story of love and hate between me and my studies.

Cinema! I like movies, all kind of movies from the good old ones, to the crap recent ones, I'm a good public and I always enjoy a movie.

Tv show!?? More or less like movie, but I get bored after few season (episodes?)
Only Malcolm in the middle, Game of thrones and Sherlock holmes are exception (I haven't try that many of them, so feel free to make me discover your favorite Tv show!

Music! I mainly listen to Reggae, Dub and electronic music (especially electro swing, if you don't know it give it a try here!

I also enjoy rock, lounge (at evening while enjoying a cup of wine on a balcony) and Trip hop (ok smart ass, it's electronic music, but I still think it's a different world! :)

I also like sports but I only still practice volleyball and wakeboard. I have a sailing licence and spend too much money in pubs!
