我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am curious to meet people of various horizons and cultures. At this stage I have space to offer, hope to be on the receiving end some day.

My ideal couchsurfers guests are: one person, coming for 3 days or more, and keen to hang out / visit the city with their host. If you are using couchsurfing.com because you want to save money and are not interested in interacting with your host, please do not send a request.

Have been working in Manhattan for years, so I know many places, but I just moved here recently, so I want to discover more, hopefully with the fresh and enthusiastic eye of travelers who are discovering it for the first time :)

兴趣

I've been performing as pianist / singer, and am now learning the accordion.

I am a big fan of strategy board games.

I love endless discussions about the future of our society, relationships, gender equality, free speech, mathematical modelling of every day stuff.

音乐、电影和书籍

I am a big fan of Dan Ariely, the author of Predictably Irrational. I love books about behavior economics, popular psychology. Recently I have been reading a lot about feminism / anti-feminism and the future of gender equality.

I am a big fan of French cinema, but over the last couple of years, I have been binge watching tons of TV shows - Breaking Bad / House of Cards / Suits / The Good Wife / Master of None / How I met your Mother / Desperate Housewives / The Office / Parks and Rec / Dexter / White Collar / The grinder / Orange is the new Black / Lost / Big Bang Theory / Hustle / Extras / Jonathan Creek / Shameless / Californication / New Girl.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

- I represented my country at the International Maths Olympiad. And Physics too.
- When I was a student, I accompanied the Belgian Minister of Foreign Affairs to a diplomatic visit to Morocco.
- I went on a major French TV channel show to sing, at prime time.
