A French guy, lived and travelled in a few countries. Recently married, plan is to be travelling the world with my wife, for about 1 year before goig back to work.

I'm born and raised in Charente, place in Western France, close to Angoulême, city where I started my studies, and a beautiful town and Cognac (city, and brandy that I get used to as I'm son of winegrowers and distillers).

I graduaded geotechnical engineering, that, even if my web browser orthographic corrector seems not to know, isn't dark science but can be related to Civil engineering, more focused on the ground and the geology.

PHILOSOPHY

"Good judgement comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgement"

"Do you know the difference between education and experience? Education is when you read the fine print; experience is what you get when you don't."

"If you board the wrong train, it is no use running along the corridor in the other direction."

And no, I actually don't plan to make the world any better, but not worse if I can :D

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I would be happy to share life, feelings and the way I feel like being part of this world with everybody.
I travelled in several countries and would like to know people with the same kind of motivation !

Surfing/hosting experiences, quite classic I'd say ;-)

Interests

I think that you're getting the point, I enjoy travels (surprising for a CS eh !), speaking, movies, music unexpected meetings...

But I can "play the French guy" as well, and speak about French culture (a little), food and wines (much more^^)...

Music, Movies, and Books

Lonely planet ^^ I'm afraid I didn't take the time to read these last years, but when I find a nice book, I give a try. Last books I read were mostly traveler stories, you know, walking through the old silk road,or crossing the Gobi... My interests vary, but travel-related books are always a go

Well, basically I can enjoy every kind of movie. Which one would you advise me to watch ? :p

I'm a rock music guy, and I really love post rock, ambient or trip/hop when I'm alone but that isn't a great clue I know.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Several trips all around Europe, Central Asia and so on, just started our World Tour ;)

You, reading my profile, in another part of the world ;-)

Teach, Learn, Share

Euhhh, what am I supposed to answer there ?

Of course if I know something that you want to learn, I can teach you, otherwise I'll let you teach me things !

I do not consider myself as a teacher in something particular, ask and we'll see :-)

I feel like most of the things I learnt were not done on purpose, and may have occurred during random talks.

Soooo, let's speak, and we will all share, then teach and learn :p
