Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I am on Couch Surfing because I love meeting new people, and I find it's such a great way to share with others!! I'm quite recent on the website, but I have travelled enough with people to develop a real affection for this type of experience.
Music, Movies, and Books
Books? So many! Brecht, Miller, Frisch? Balzac, Beaumarchais? Reading Hemingway just now, for the first time, quite good really If you ask for favourite, I'll have to go for Balzac. And yet, I am slowly moving into contemporary litterature... Getting interested by other aspects of writting just now - to be continued!! But trying more and more to find female authors to read, totally open to suggestions!! Movies?? Wes Anderson, I just love his work, Xavier Dolan, Mommy Laurence Anyways Music?? Really scattered here, just now, I am back on liking a lot Arcade Fire, discovering Sally Dige, and meditating on Philip Glass

My Interests
