Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Life is great when you're free to look for yourself, even if you don't make any money :-)
ABOUT ME
Je suis un ex-scientifique qui ne ressemble pas dutout à ce qu'on imagine être un scientifique.
PHILOSOPHY
I don't know. I'm in transition right now and I got the luxury to have time to look for myself, what are my values and what is important for me. I will let you know when I figure it out.
I guess the part of the answer that I already know is that I want to be a good man.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
A quarter of my CS friends are people I hosted, a quarter people I surfed to and the last half are people I made join CS.
CS is really about an exchange where both sides (should) win.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I haven't surfed or hosted in a while... Thime to fix that!
Interests
Le voyage, la politique et le monde des affaires.
- physics
Music, Movies, and Books
I don't have a TV anymore, but I sure watch it on the internet. I love BBC'S Top Gear show, even if I'm not car fan. I like the Daily Show and the Quebec equivalent. I like repertoir movies, but when I actually watch one movie, it's usually for simple entertainment. Go watch Quebecois movies. They are really good!
I have readings for fun and readings to learn. I like self-improvement books, politics and biographies. I also like to read theatre, travel stories, novels, ect. I don't read as much as I would like... The Economist magazine is my favorite reading.
I love Brothers, by the Black Keys. Quebecois music. Ect.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
My best experience was in North Vietnam when I did a 4 days round-trip in motorbike from Sapa to Diem Biem Phu. I didn't meet any tourists, saw the bests sceneries of my life and met many locals in the cities midway I slept in. My overall motorbike experience in South-East Asia is the best thing I ever lived.
The 16 hours night train in India in the general couch section was also quite something...
I guess the Ph.D. too was quite something. So glad it's over!! :-D
Teach, Learn, Share
I sure like to talk about everything mentionned above. I like to talk too about what I did in my previous life: string theory and physics.
I think best conversations are often about what me or the other person is passionnate about and when the interest is mutual. I love to learn about what other are passionate about.
