Overview
About Me
Hi everyone! I'm an easy going guy that tries to learn as much as possible from life. I think curiosity is the most important trait in humans and we all should seek knowledge and do new experiences whenever we can. I like chilling out just as much as I like to be hyperactive. I like to know different people with similar and different interests to share and learn from. I usually get along with everyone. I adapt easily to any kind of situation and any kind of persons. I think everyone is interesting and has their own reasons and stories that explains the way they are and the choices they make.
Taking into account all the negative stuff, life is still an extremely important experience to go through and I feel lucky to be here and that's why I try to live it at its fullest.
I like simplicity in life and I think every problem is solvable.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Because couchsurfing is great!
You get to know many interesting and different people wherever you go, share and learn from each others.
Interests
Lately I got much more into photography and playing swing jazz guitar. I used to write ryhmed prose and poems in french but I'm on a hiatus for lack of poetic inspiration.

Music, Movies, and Books
MUSIC
Lately I listen to Jazz (mainly bepop, orchestral, swing and gypsy jazz) but I have always been and still I am a big fan and follower of progressive music. Joe Pass, Django Reinhardt, Mingus, Duke Ellington are just a few of the many I love in the Jazz scene and Steven Wilson/Porcupine Tree, Opeth, Genesis, Pink Floyd in the progressive one.
After Prog and Jazz comes Classical music but I actually enjoy a bit of everything. I also love Triphop, Jazz rap and some Electronic music. I used to listen to old school HipHop and many kinds of Metal in highschool. Also grunge, blues and rock'n roll.
I don't have any problem in staying with people and listen to any other kind of music like dub, reggae or psy or anything else.
MOVIES
I just like well done films in general: Classicals like Begnini, Truffaut, Hitchkock, Kubrik, Woody Allen and newer ones like Van Dormael, Tarantino, Tykwer. I also like Lord of the rings and Star wars.
I also watch animes although I prefer reading mangas. My favorite anime is Cowboy Bepop. I really liked Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood, Samurai Champloo, Evangelion and some others.
I love Studio Ghibli films, especially Princess Mononoke.
BOOKS
When it comes to reading I actually read much more scientific stuff than literature. Lately I'm trying to learn more about russian literature and I'm reading Dostoevskij. I've read many french classics too, mostly 18th, 19th and 20th centuary literature.
As earlier said, I read mangas too. I like many of them but if I have to chose one it would certainly be One Piece, I kind of grew up with it. Devilman, HxH, Tetsuwan girl and Berserk are some of my favorites.
What I Can Share with Hosts
We can share chilling moments and some pints in a pub or somewhere out and chat. We can talk about anything ranging from nonesense and dark humour to the fatality of life and the universal chaos.
I also cook! I know how to cook different italian and tunisian meals, so I can bring new tastes and flavors to your dining room.
If you play an instrument we can do some jam sessions! If not I can play something for you!
I will help with pleasure in doing the dishes, cleaning the house and every other house-duty!
I can teach you some words and expressions in any of the languages I speak and tell you about the cultural aspects, social reality and everything I learned and noticed while living abroad and traveling.
