CURRENT MISSION

Live it all !.. Get to Germany for German, get to Spain for Spanish, but sail as well, and look at my dreams (Patagonia horse-ride, Africa, Feroes-Spitzberg by boat...) and yet work, a bit, and sort out the mess, and.... make sure this work for us both!

ABOUT ME

Things are changing, aren't they?
I used to say "workd on a/c for the past 6 years" when I joined. Now that would be more like 8 years and I think I start having enough.
New plan is "sailing".
I'll let you know how that works for a living ;) For now, it starts not too slowly, so that's nice.

PHILOSOPHY

Help yourself and god will help you. Don't put too much faith on the divinity side.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When at home for long enough...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

At friend's friends places, so far; but here you are: new friends! ;-)
So there I went: visited smiling-Magali a la Tchaux and survived the Pitbull night!! ;-)
I now also hosted my first guest, a story of its own... and then a few more, but via Lindy Hop. You known Lindy Hop?

Interests

Others: languages, countries, cultures.
Sailing.
Life. You know, this thing beating in your chest, and sometimes it's beating a bit louder, loud enough that you notice you had one, actually.
And Lindy Hop: its free folks and all-overworld swinging crowd!

Music, Movies, and Books

A la verticale de l'ete, Chunk King express, Great Expectations (does that say about style?). Kundera, Proust, Baudelaire. Blade Runner. Van Gogh...

Les livres: Evidemment, il y'en a plein de bien; mais bon pour commencer A l'ouest rien de nouveau (Erich Maria Remarque), ou Les Taureaux de Jacques Brel pour faire plus condensé.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sailed off alone, once or twice, and came back.

Took a risk. Once it was a girl. Once it was a land. Once it was a boat. Always it was about that piece of me I thought was just a piece of meat.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sailing. I can share that. I am now even a proud member of the "Bénévoles" UCPA Skipper team! I wasn't expecting that it would go so well with 5 teenagers on my boat... and now even with 5 teens!
