About Me

Yet another geek. I have a specialty in unfinished projects, over-perfectionism and procrastination. Used to travel, a lot less these days tho, now I try to get better at making great architectures in my software, keep improving in photography and film development, have good times with my friends and well... that's actually enough to keep me busy on an everyday basis.
I can be very talkative or rather silent and lost in my thoughts because of social anxiety and stuff, but even if I'm not in my best mood, I'll try to be of good company.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I used to travel a lot. So I started to couchsurf and hitchhike to meet more people. Then I got a job, and you know the end of this sentence : I stopped having free time, and that's why I ended up quitting.
I host people every once in a while, when I live in a place with enough space, if I have time and mostly if I feel like it. I haven't hosted anyone from couchsurfing in a while, I didn't have time or energy for it, but I think I'll take requests again now that I don't have a full time job bloating my schedule anymore.

Interests

Ouch, that could be long...
I'd say music, travels, computer stuff, society, people, putting everything in relation, putting the world to rights, photography, food, psychology, erf I don't know, there's plenty of stuff I love speaking about and it generally depends on the person I'm speaking with.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies : too many.
Books : too many. As I'm writing this, I'm re-reading Italian Shoes from Henning Mankell and it' really fits my mood with all the waiting, the snow and slow action, but by the time you read this, this information will be outdated.
Music : Radiohead remains my favorite band of all times, but I can listen to anything from classical to death metal or jazz, hip hop, electro. If it's good the style doesn't matter. These days I'm into Temples, King Gizzard and the lizard wizard, Dooz Kawa, St Vincent and Twelve Foot Ninja, but honestly, being a developer I basically listen to music all day while I work so I'm always discovering new stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trying (and failing) to bath in the arctic ocean. But I believe that the most amazing things in my life are still to come.

What I Can Share with Hosts

This will totally depend on my state of mind, my free time and energy. Sometimes you'll just have a place to sleep, a spare set of keys and an empty fridge, some other times there'll be a huge dinner, beers, weed, friends of mine and plenty of advice about what to do in Toulouse.
