CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is finding out where in the world I want to live and call home

ABOUT ME

I really enjoy music, it´s my passion and what I like to do in life. My first impressions were the Beatles, Bach and Vivaldi, Georges Brassens and Jacques Brel, and then came Django Reinhardt and the all that jazz and now I love playing gipsy swing and spending good time with people jamming and talking.
Also, I like to walk without knowing where I'm going - in cities as well as in nature. I enjoy riding a bike as it gives me a sensation of freedom.
I love food, especially when it's home cooked and even more when I´ve cooked it for someone else to share with too.
I really like philosophizing into the night although I sometimes doubt whether those talks have anything to do with wisdom...
I was born in London from a belgian mother and canadian father, grew up in Luxembourg attending a german school and finished high school in Germany and then went to study English lit. in Canada, and so am a bit confused about who I am hehe.
Apart from that, my goal in life is to meet many people to play music with and to spread happiness whenever, wherever and however I can.

PHILOSOPHY

I think the first and last word of all higher wisdom is love.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I beleive I participate by sharing what experience I've gathered travelling and living here there and everywhere.
I participate by offering to house fellow pilgrims so that people may travel without much money and travelers get to know the places they visit from the inside, through the people who live there

All good so far!
