CURRENT MISSION

Sometimes everyday life is a mission to me

ABOUT ME

My friends say I am kind, open-minded and respectful of others. I can seem a bit shy at first but I love to meet people especially from other countries. My best friend is Vietnamese.
I am a naturally tidy and organized person but wouldn't mind adapting to a bit more chaotic environment for a few days.
My origins are Armenian but I don't speak the language. I have lived in the USA as a young child, so I am a good English speaker and I enjoy having opportunities to practice this language.
Please feel free to contact me if you'd like to ask me more detailed questions about my personality and/or lifestyle.

PHILOSOPHY

Good things can come from the most unexpected places/people. We just have to be ready for them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For the moment I'm looking for people who can host me so I can get my first couchsurfing experiences and when I get a better idea of how it's done I will consider hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None for the moment. Can't wait to have one though !

Interests

I have always found science truly beautiful and have dedicated the major part of my life to it. Now that circumstances have led me to work in a different field (computers), I draw interest in other activities such as sports (fitness training and swimming), playing cards with friends or eating out in good Parisian restaurants with them. I used to read a lot (my favorite book is probably 100 years of solitude by Gabriel Garcia Marquez) but I can't seem to find the time anymore ! When I'm at home I watch movies on our french-german art channel. As for music, the last concert I went to was MGMT, I found them awesome !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing a baby killer whale close in on us in the boat and look at us with curiosity (Alaska).
Seeing my neighbor's baby sleep with his hands up in the air (Paris).
Seeing atoms and molecules and quantization for the first time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach French, English, Physics, how to make yogurt and apple crumble. I can share my traveling experiences though they were not through couchsurfing. I'd like to learn more about couchsurfing, about different countries' cultures and lifestyles.
