About Me

CURRENT MISSION

find an aspirin and wash my socks

ABOUT ME

I've finished my PhD in theoretical physics. Well, at least ! That's was great, but I'm also happy now, to have time to travel and meet people. My plan is to reach for a first long stop Istanbul. Then, after one or two years to learn turkish... hum, we'll see, but I have a lot of ideas !^^ Maybe I'm dreaming ?

PHILOSOPHY

One day after one other.

Want to be surprised, each time to be alive.

We live on a planet where the common is a miracle.
And it's not so easy to see it, when it's a habit.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've hosted people during more or less 3 years. That was a nice way to travel and to stay in Strasbourg. Now, well, I hope to be hosted !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I just remember the great ones, the others ? Well, I keep smiling when I think about it.

Interests

I'm studying physics
but I enjoy to learn about everything.

Curiosity is the best way to live, and each day I wonder what I'm gonna to learn!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Nothing is really amazing. Or maybe, to be alive that's the really amazing thing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach, or at least try to teach physics, and a bit of chemistry. Maybe make you discover something as the achaemenid empire, and the epic of Gilgamesh!

It should be very good to me to practice english, spanish and german... and why not learn russian or anything else about history of others subjects !
