ABOUT ME

This is the most difficult thing !  A bit shy at first, curious, active... hope you find out if and when we meet sometime, somewhere...

PHILOSOPHY

"Malheur à celui qui ne désire plus, il a perdu tout sens à son existence" - Baudelaire"The only way to be sure of catching a train is to miss the one before it" - GK Chesterton"Toutes les généralisations sont fausses, y compris celle-là" - Groucho MarxI've learned....That everyone wants to live on top of the mountain, but all the happiness and growth occurs while you're climbing it.
 

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Can't host right now, hope to be able to when I come back from my travels in a couple of years ??Share with friends this super concept.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My parents were exchanging houses when I was a kid (mostly France-Wales) and my 87 year old dad still does...My first couchsurfing experience with couchsurfing.org was in China with my son.  What a good way to meet people of different horizons and share something with them.
