I'm a no-man's land type of person.

By that I just mean to say I'm a "middle-er" and don't feel comfortable being on one side and sticking to it - I like spending time with very different types of people and trying to understand their points of view ; I am a practical person and a theorist at the same time ; I love the experience of living in different countries and trying to adapt to the culture, but I am who I am and won't take in every and anything ; I enjoy staying in big cities and in the countryside. I'm diverse, and need diversity..

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I hosted a few CS back when I was living in Bordeaux, Toulouse and Podgorica. I also went to a few meetings and for a few drinks and tried to help with tips like how to write a French CV, how to apply for a job in a wineward or where to find a good restaurant...

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I don't like having to answer this question to be able to send a couch request.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I can teach you some French, if you want to.

I would love to share some music and films, especially some music that is difficult to find in stores.

We could share moments taking pictures ; I'm very much into details, I love picturing "pieces of" (a flower, an eye, a shoe, a pen, a cup of coffee...)

I'd like to swap some recipes as well!
