CURRENT MISSION

my mission? to live of course!

ABOUT ME

I'm a very sociable person, i love to laught!
i like meeting people and discover other cultures.
i love travelling, but i think you can really know a country or a city only if you know the inhabitants and their way of life.
i used to live in England and in Italy, therefore i'm not afraid about new situations.
i can't stay behind a desk for too long! i have to move quite often. i couldn't work in an office for a long time. there are so many places to see in the world! why would i want to stay in the same place forever?
i'm really not a solitary person! my friends are so important to me! but i don't need to have a lot of friends, just a few is ok, but good ones!
to conclude, i think i can say that i just want to live!

PHILOSOPHY

i like to act following my feelings.
i don't want to think too much, i just feel the things.
if you start thinking too much, always trying for hours to weigh the pros and cons, after you'll be afraid to do anything!
but i'm not stupid and i know when i have to be careful!
my personal philosophy is trying not to regret anything. if you don't do something that you really wanted to, after you'll regret it for your all life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i think this CS project is great!
unfortunately, i'm moving right now so i can't host anybody! but i'll be hosting again as soon as i found (and get ready) my new accomodation!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

amazing trips with couchsurfing experiences as in Austria and Slovakia in summer 2009 or in Turkey in summer 2013 ! i met wonderful people. everybody was so kind!

then several times in France i've hosted and surfed: i've always met friendly kind-hearted persons!

Interests

i like talking, having great discussions with people from other countries.
art is really important to me. all my family is artist (painters, musicians, sculptors, writers,...)
i'm also fond of reading!
i love to hang out with my family and my friends. what's best than going to take a coffee or a drink after work, and talking, laughing for hours?!

Music, Movies, and Books

in which music is concerned, i have very eclectic taste!
i can listen classical music, then listen rock music, and japanese pop music! i can listen everything! (well i have to admit that norvegian metal and italian rap aren't my favourite music! but i've tried!)
i'm not an expert in cinema, even if i had some classes in university. but i like movies. for me, the most important thing is to spend a nice moment!
as i've already said i love books! i've read so many books that for me it's impossible to choose my favourite ones! i can just say that i don't like love stories where nothing happens!!! it's so boring!(but i can still be friend with girls who like that!)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

one amazing thing i've done in my lifetime is going to live in Italy when i was 19. 2 months before moving i didn't know that i was going to leave France!
in june 2005, one of my italian teachers told me i had very good results to the tests and therefore university offered me to go studying one year in Italy with the Erasmus program.
one month later i was in Pisa, looking for a flat!

The other amazing things i've done are my last backpacking trips:
in Madeira island (summer 2016): trekking above the clouds
in Japan (summer 2015): backpacking with my brother in traditional Japan
in Lebanon (spring 2015): art, archeology, nature, the old and the new Lebanon
in Scandinavia (summer 2014): Goteborg, Stockholm, Oslo
in Turkey (summer 2013): trekking, snorkeling,...
in Asia (summer 2012): Cambodge, Laos, Vietnam and Indonesia. Roadtrip under the rain in the lao countryside; trekking by night to reach the top of javanese vulcanos for sunrise; snorkeling in Bali... A lot of adventures: quite tiring summer (!) but i'll never forget it!

Teach, Learn, Share

it's a wonderful experience to share the customs of your own country, to share your way of thinking about other cultures, to talk about your travels.
as i speak 3 linguages (french of course, english and italian) the communication is easier.
one of my objectives is to learn 2 new linguages: spanish and japanese.
linguages and me: it's a huge love story!
