CURRENT MISSION

making my dreams come true! Life is too short not to live it!

ABOUT ME

We only live once! So my motto is experiencing the most of it. I usually say yes to everything...how will I know I do/don't like it if I haven't tried it before!

I love travelling and meeting people. It all started as an exchange student 15 years ago! A year abroad and then I knew that the world would have to become my home. I love travelling but the most I like in my travels is the cultural exchange. To meet locals and getting to know their culture and their way of living. You can only understand a culture and the people if you take time to know it and them. I don't want to 'consume' the country I'm visiting, I much prefer to feel it, live it and experience it. I reckon travelling is about sharing and trying new stuff.

PHILOSOPHY

Live, laugh, love!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't got any CS experience yet even if I've hosted a lot of friends or friends of friends at my place! I like hosting guest as I like to share my life and my culture and learn about other life and culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

Revolutionary road is my favorite movie at the moment. Otherwise, The Jungle book, Requiem for a dream,Le fabuleux destin d'Amelie Poulain (Amelie), Babel, Lost in translation, Pixar's movies...
I'm also a big fan of Twin peaks and Six feet under.
My favorite book is the atlas! A classic I know!
And for the music, I'm quite open...I use to work in the indie music industry so I have to say that I usually listen to non commercial music even if I dance on commercial one!! But if I have to mention some names then it will be Massive Attack, Zero7, Goldfrapp, Air, Royksopp, Mylo, Thievery Corporation, Soulwax, DJ Shadow, Tricky, Day One,Grove Armada, Feist, The Cat Empire...
I love art/culture so I'm quite open to new style or sort of music, movies and books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Anazing things I've done? Well, I would say, going to India!! All my friends advised me for years to go and discover this country. I waited until I thought I was ready and there I was, living and working for a little while in this amazing country. Living everyday as it was my last one. So vibrant, so rich...I just loved it!
