CURRENT MISSION

there is no need to have a mission... the only need is to be free of everything

ABOUT ME

All about me??? well, if you want but it's gonna be quite long... The all story started in a sunny day of august many years ago, and a few minutes later, I was crying and asking for food... I like food... but not cooking that's why I was crying... OK, I'll try to be serious from now... I can be serious... sometimes!
I hate working that's why I went to school as long as I could... Since school time is over, I hope I'll find another way to chill out for the rest of my time, to play some music, to cultivate my garden candidly and to spend time with people dreaming of a better world... Oh yeah, I am a fucking utopist... and a lazy one, it's even worse!!! If you want to know more, just come home!

PHILOSOPHY

Looking for freedom, equality and fraternity... Typically french but that should be at the basis of everything... Nothing has changed since the age of enlightenment. Let's do something! Now!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It's just the beginning for me... I would not be honest to say that I already participate to anything at this time... I just hope to meet some people during my trip in eastern europe... But when I'll be back home, I'll participate as much as I can if some of you to come in my place...

Interests

Mainly interested in music... I will not say "of any kind", it would be a lie, it's not possible to like everything. So I'll say "music of any place". Music is also a way to travel, to learn about different cultures and to meet people... I really like traditional music (gypsy!!!, african, brasilian, breton, arabic...) At the beginning of my music experience I was a punk... It was fun and then I went to a jazz school... not as fun! but so great... Now, I teach drums to children, I play guitar and sing (at least try to)...
When I'm not playing music, I also take care of my garden, grow vegetables and stuff... Growing your own food is a good way to feel free... but it's just a start
