CURRENT MISSION

Host Couchsurfers, and plan a new trip to Stockholm or Helsinki

ABOUT ME

I'm a 31 year old guy from France. I'm from brittany (the celtic western part of France), and I'm now living in Lyon.
I have also lived in Paris, Nancy (eastern France) and Maynooth, near Dublin, Ireland.

PHILOSOPHY

As said earlier, my thing is to spend beautiful moments. I try not to judge, and to learn from people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I mostly host people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm hosting friends from France, Germany, Ireland regularly, and I've hosted my first couch surfers on June 2008: 2 Chinese, then 2 others, and the experience was just great. Those couch surfers were really nice, and even if I hadn't a lot of free time with them, the few chats and the party we did together were nice.
Since then, I've hosted people from Sweden, Austria, Russia, Canada, Ireland and Finland. Everyone has been great.
I haven't been able to host anyone since 2010, but now I can! So feel free to ask :-)

Interests

Well, first, people!
Then I really really like music: listening to it, playing it, composing it. I like arts in general, but mostly contemporary music, cinema and graphic arts. I mostly like it contemporary because it has not been analyzed and criticized by thousands of people yet: when it's brand new, not yet widly known, you get a chance to touch people deeper.
I'm a guitar and bass guitar player, and I'm beginning to learn to play the electronic keyboard.
I really like the dark/romantic/goth influence, but don't worry, I'm very happy and cheerful!
I'm open too. I'll take music as an example: I listen to girlie and pop (Alizée, etc.), as well as indie rock (Kent, Cranes...), electronic music (Goldfrapp, Ladytron...), goth (Emilie Autumn, the old L'Âme Immortelle albums...) and metal stuff (Katatonia, Punish Yourself, Cult Of Luna, Samsas Traum...)

The more different feelings I get, the happier I am. And it's like this with people too: the more people from different cultures I can connect with, the better!

I'm just seeking beauty in every one and every thing, and enjoying it.
