About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To have fun and learn and get a cultural shock

ABOUT ME

29 years old man. I live with my girlfriend, and we're pretty happy. I am talkative and nice and sometimes a little bit excited, but i am cool too, i think. I am a very curious person. I absolutely love music (all kind, but mostly strange). I HATE spiders but i LOVE dogs - anyway, i haven't. I like drinking beers and expansive wine with friends, on pavement area, under the sun ! And eating expansive weird food. I like to speak english as in TV Shows. And, of course, i like travelling when i can. I like almost all countries, but very interested by asia. I don't know why exactly. I love to meet people. We met some great persons in Vietnam or in Berlin.

PHILOSOPHY

The time is a gift

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Laughing and feeding !
Impatient to meet the culture of someone else

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosting and surfing. Both are awesome. By hosting, sharing my cultural specifity and my life-stuff for whom who are interested. By surfing, discovering the culture of someone else and his life-stuff wich i am very interested !

Interests

So much stuff: music (i use to write for ezine, about experimental and weird music - i do my stuff too), cinema (all around the world, especially japanese, korean, and author style like Tarkovsky, Grandrieux,... sometimes movie like Gaspard Noé, Tsukamoto, or 28 days later), SF litterature (Greg Egan, Ian Mcdonald, Gibson,...) and strange litterature (Artaud, Burroughs,...). I like psychoanalysis (Lacan is my master). I play music (guitar, oud and sêtar), i practice Aikido and Iaido (Muso Shinden Ryu). I am very interested by the Japanese Culture (and, since i discover it, by Persia !)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have done a punk concert many years ago, with no-lucky-destroyed-guitar-and-chords. It was... apocalyptic. And funny !
I've survived to a bus crash accident in Vietnam.
I've been in a noise concert in Tokyo

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach psychoanalysis and psychology, guitar and sêtar (iranien instrument). I can argue with quantic physic, i'm learning maths. No it's not true. I love politic but it's a very sensitive talk. I am thirsty of learnig stuff, mostly about history. History is fascinating.
