CURRENT MISSION

set up my own Chinese medicine practice

ABOUT ME

I guess at first glance a bit of happy craziness mixed with 'joie de vivre' and ready to help out where I can with a big smile, unless it is to move houses or pack bags. two things I hate the most in my life, most likely because I do it so often.

PHILOSOPHY

step into the world with an open heart, but don't be naive either. taste, look, listen, smell as much as you can, while you can !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

my first CS I did was in Beijing, China and I met this wonderful host that shared so many of the same interests with me. It made me want to CS more, so surfers came to my house or I took them out for a coffee, then I even convinced my mom of surfing and there we went, it was a great gig for her too. I love the way how it makes people get to know each other.

Interests

I like to observe and talk and smell and touch the world around me. I spend most of my time behind my books of chinese medecine trying to find out how it works, so when I do come out I try to see friends, go for some great food places and try to travel as much as I can.

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch approx 2-3 movies a day, so that includes the very good ones and the super bad ones. I love to read books and any good book that a friend can recommend I'll read: economics, fantasy, philosophy, classics...
I have a lot of music, but mostly given by friends who think that I have no taste in music, so they try to polish playlist. hehe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

the moment I walked 200km to santiago de compostella, Spain with my dad and the shared feeling of all the pilgrims arriving at the same cathedral was very emotional. it was amazing.

every time i go to Thailand and swim in the sea at 6am into the freedom of the waves, the upcoming sun and nobody around. just me and the waves...

just to be in the garden of my parents, sitting there with some tea and talking to my parents, playing with the dogs and some family member coming in to say hello.
