About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Reaching saigon

ABOUT ME

Just graduated from film school in montreal, i now travel in southeast asia before i start living with a camera on my shoulder replacing my right eye.
i think i'm keen, not complicated but thoughtful, good sense of humour maybe, enjoying meeting people and sharing stories about us, the world and all the rest.

PHILOSOPHY

Living with no plan, not meaning no ambition, in the end to learn from the world as much as i can, and then finding ways to express myself, through arts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

just registered on couchsurf for the last days of my trip in southeast asia.
i had hosted couchsurfers before, but it doesnt show on my profile, only on my roommate's profile.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted three nice guys from belgium who put trans music all day long in my kitchen, but it was fun anyways!

Music, Movies, and Books

movies: stalker and tarkovsky's, all of kubrick's, a couple of godard's, those of fatih akin and stuff for kids that havent grown up yet, like spike jonze, gondry and wes anderson.
music: radiohead, indie rock from montreal and away, old punk rock like nofx, daring country music like the Sadies, crazy electronic music such as amon tobin, powerful jazz heard with mingus, and more...
books: old classic of 'anticipation' like Brave New World, weird society portraits read in The Blindness, black humourous Camus, subtle F Scott Fitzgerald...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hitchicking through quebec province, riding all the way to the other end of canada, backpacking in peru and now chopsticking my way out in southeast asia.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teachin is a way too big word, sharing would be more suitable, so i like to share my view of the world, one in which everything is achievable if we work as a whole.
learning from other's past and future is in a couple words what i like...
