I'm a third-year med student, in Paris. I shoud focus more on my studies........., but while I still have some free time, I'd love to meet people from around the world! :-)

I've spent most of my life in France, around Paris. I lived in Dubai, UAE for three years when I was in primary school (a long time ago...). I visited several countries, for holidays or during internships, especially in Asia.

I'm a French citizen but I have multicultural origins (Tunisian, Chinese and Vietnamese). I've always lived surrounded by people from different cultural backgrounds (philosophy, spirituality, language, way of life...) and always been amazed by the human diversity.
Encountering people from different horizons enlarges your vision of the world, of mankind, of life and helps you become a wiser person!

MY MOTTO :
You are the child of the cultures you've met, the people you've met and the places where you've been.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd love to keep discovering new ways of life and new ways of thinking through travelling to enrich my own "philosophy" of life.

I love belonging to a community such as Couchsurfing community that promotes openness, hospitableness and friendliness between travelers!

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite Music: "Somewhere over the rainbow" (with a cute ukulele, that's perfect...!)

Favorite Movie: "Hippocrate" (French movie about the "dysfunctions" of the social and health system in France)

Favorite Book: "The Doctor and the Soul", from Viktor Frankl
According to Frankl, man's innate desire is to give as much value as possible to his life; to actualize as much meaning as possible. Therein he is faced with an interesting problem: what are the possibilities for giving life meaning; for realizing values? There are several answers. Men can give meaning to their lives by what I call creative values; by achieving tasks. But they can also give meaning to their lives by realizing experiential values, by experiencing goodness, the truth, beauty, or by knowing one single human being in all his uniqueness. And to experience one human being as unique is to love him.
