Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Meet different people, learn from them, from their philosophy, behaviours, personality, it's always interesting for me. And finally... it is all about having a special time where you are visiting, because it is about meeting someone living in the place , so having a special way of living it ! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Some in France where I hosted people and some in japan. That was a great experience in both case. It is nice to share , receive and give !
Music, Movies, and Books
Music : mostly any style with a dynamic rythm! Movies :cloud atlas, starbuck, litlle miss sunshine, lord of the ring, harry potter (sorry) Books : somes novels, science fiction, fantasy... and personnal developpement ! Of course i like ... The little prince. I also consume a lot of Comics and graphic novel !
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I hiked the Reunion Island, across volcanos and cirque for 14 days. It was amazing (even if my knees still remember it)!
Teach, Learn, Share
I would love to meet people who can share some hobbies . I am very adaptable, so just teach me what you want please ! I can teach some asian recipes, some games (mouhahaha), and share about my hobbies as drawing and photography.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Social time, talking, visiting, advices for the rest of the travel, a good meal and a glass of beer (or other)!
My Interests
I really like creative stuff : as drawing, sketching, photography . I am trying to create an urban sketchers group in Saint-Etienne. As I have not find a better way to improve the drawing skill ;) ! I worked for years in social work but I changed for artistic area (made a travel/comics book in Japan which has been published) and now I do some art workshop for children and teach in school. I am also learning yoga, trying to practice meditation, and having a vegetarian diet. And I really enjoy playing games : board games and philosophical debate.
