About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Being alive and awake. Growing up is not the same as getting old.

ABOUT ME

ALL about me :-) I'll try. At this moment in my life, I spent the few hours a day has got on; climbing (much climbing...), running, going out with friends, cooking, playing chess, reading, boardgames and much more...

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know why we are living. I stopped searching for the reason, because I think I discovered that we can not discover... But that doesn't stop me for trying to accumulate all sort of experiences.

If you want something, you have to go for it.

Face life. Make life. Feel awake.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I spent a month in an appartment in the center of Paris with three Italian girls when my room wasn't my room anymore.
I spent a night in Barcelona with some Argentine musicians :-) and on the border between France and Switzerland we stayed with a very friendly women, when our 'atlasbased' daytrip didn't turn out as expected.

First experience from this site; Rotterdam 2007.

It is such a nice way of discovering, apart from the regular tourist circuit.
