About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the world to meet the good people on it, loving and tolerant, letting other people be freely who they are.

ABOUT ME

I can say I'm very talkative (too much some say and may be right), interested by everything, adventurous, fond of other cultures, fond of difference, tolerant, open-minded, very active (tiring sometimes), eco-freak and of course full of many others qualities and defects, as everyone !
I love cooking and eating tasteful meals (specially cheese, come on I'm French!), and nature sports (climbing, biking, hiking, canoeing...)

PHILOSOPHY

Personal freedom is the most important thing for me. I can be free to do, to think and to be whatever I want as long as I respect the same freedom principles for others, in full respect of others moral and physical integrity.
Apart from that, life is beautiful and should be lived fully as a permanent wonder.
Oh, and something very important for me, being honest and of integrity toward my personal philosophy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As much and as well as I can (in fact I don't really get the question...)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been hosted in Comoros and Tanzania and France only, but it was amazingly great experiences ! I hadn't the chance yet to host wonderful travelers.
And I'd like to add that I've travelled these last 10 years by hitchhiking, being hosted by anyone anywhere and in any condition (i.e. storage room, cellar, attic, abandoned house, church...) so I'm quite used to adapt myself to the local demand, hey ! Might be easy for you as for me !

Interests

Everything ! But I'm more interested about Nature, plants, animals, biology but also ideology, philosophy, social concerns, ethnology (especially minorities), etc... but I like to talk and learn about everything!

Music, Movies, and Books

Anything but of quality. I'm not fond of mass media fashion artists, even if some are great, I admit. But usually I'm more in search of some unknown amazing different stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I visited almost all Europe by hitch-hiking, sleeping in very random places, outside most of time, from France to Kazakhstan for the longest hike.
I've lived several weeks in Nepal with a Nepalese family in the mountain, the most simple and happy life, no electricity, no running water, field work, volunteer teacher at the primary school.
I've moved house around 30 times in my life, so unstable ! Can't stay somewhere for long ! Something like a modern Nomad.
And above all I've seen wonderful things everywhere, and lived great moments with people everywhere, and I'd be delighted to tell you all about !

Teach, Learn, Share

I love talking general knowledge about anything in the world, explaining biologic stuff. I know sewing, photography, acrobatics, scuba diving...
I love learning anything also, and I'm very interested about plant knowwledge, esoteric stuff, survival stuff and ethnical practices. I'd like to improve my knowledge in alternative cultivation, agriculture.
