About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm a storyteller and a musicien, currently living in Rennes (Britanny, France). I enjoy chatting with friends in a pub, more than nightclub with blasting music. I play the guitar (mainly), but also the piano and the double bass.
What can i tell you about me, i lived in Peru (for 1 year, as an exchange student) and in Spain (1 year as a "teacher assistant" auxiliar de lenguas), and i've travelled round Europe.

Je suis donc conteur et musicien, résidant à Rennes (Bretagne). Je suis plutôt petits bars et discussion chaleureuse que grosse soirée et musique à fond. Je joue de la guitare (principalement), mais aussi du piano et de la contrebasse.
Que raconter sur moi, j'ai vécu au Pérou (1 an d'échange) et en Espagne (1 an d'assistant de langue), et j'ai un peu bougé en europe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've always wanted to meet the people of the country i've travelled to. It's always way more interesting and some times, quite magical to discover a country or a city, seeing it with the eyes of someone living in it.
I like to get out of the big touristic tracks, and i prefer to explore a place with Geocaching, or just following the new people I meet.

Interests

So, music obviously (I'm more acoustic in my tastes, blues, jazz, gipsie, french songwriter, folk, celtic, etc...), but i do enjoy a good movie night.
I like to sing sea shantees with my friend on the beach at night, or a boardgame for a more quiet night.

Music, Movies, and Books

In no particular order, here we go :
Tarantino
Michel Gondry
House of Cards
The Robin Hobb books
The Monty Python Flying Circus
Doctor Who
Novecento Pianist
No such thing as a fish

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first thing that comes in mind is my professionnal evolution, and i am now a profesional artist, and that is the greatest joy there is for me ! One of the first, and most succesful show i have is with my girlfriend : it's called Albaricate (french song and sign language, go check it out !)

Teach, Learn, Share

I guess i can teach you a bit of guitare, eventhough i usually don't travel with it.
I can tell you stories as well, for kids or for grown ups, loveloy or scary stories.
