About Me

On the 14th of december 2015, I decided I would finally leave Switzerland and its oppressive atmosphere of never-ending profit for the greatest of all journeys I could ever wish for: Travelling around the world, as far as one can go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Currently travelling, I'd be glad to minimize hotel expenses, but also and mostly encounter new people willing to open their doors for good moments to share.

Interests

Having been an independent bookseller for three years, is there any more need to say I do really like books? As you would open one and progress through its pages, within chapters and adventures, I'd love to continue reading through my own: finding new people to meet, new places to visit, new dishes to eat, for I am curious and open to novelty.

Music, Movies, and Books

Even though I particularly listen to metal, I do like classical music a lot (Satie, Vivaldi, Mozart, Beethoven).
There is no such movies I like more than Isao Takahata's "Kaguya-hime", as well as pretty much all of Ghibli's productions.
I've read quite a lot of books, but never did I read anything like japanese poetry with such admirative passion. Poetry, in general, is where I've found the most pleasure out of.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teaching children English for 5 months in Hô Chi Minh City.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching anything I know, learning everything I don't, sharing all that is good being.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Do you sometimes like to take that one break in between two world-changing discussions, and just start laughing? I think I am that one type of person, on whom you can count, knowing when to be serious, with nothing better to offer but originality and good willing feelings.
