About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover new ideas, new people, new creations...

ABOUT ME

We are a young dynamic couple living in a lovely small town with our little Marilou and Violette. The town is called Enghien, located 20min by train from Brussels. Please mention "Enghien" in the first phrase of your request (just to make sure you read your guest profile ;-).
We love to be at home surrounded by our friends and family and travel the world with no idea of what tomorrow is going to be.
Life is just about trying to mix these two goals!

PHILOSOPHY

Do it now if you are not 100/100 sure to get a second chance to do it later.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We are just starters in the CS project, but it already changed our mind and our opinion of our world... in a very optimistic way !

Interests

Sports: playing and talking about all kind of sports in general but cycling and football above all!
Entrepreneurship: I mean starting and driving a project in general (not specifically a company). I really enjoy listening to people having or contributing to projects! By the way CS is a great way to meet such people!
Theater: watching and playing
And of course, traveling! While traveling I really enjoy understanding the history and, above all, discovering the people of the places!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is a kind of experimental alternative soft rock: two good examples are Beck (at international level) and dEUS (at Belgian level). My favorite song is from them: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uyA01nH72NI

Books: many biographies, Life of Pi, The 4-hours workweek...

Teach, Learn, Share

French: I have never given classes, but I really enjoy teaching, so with a book as framework it should be ok.
Entrepreneurship, that's really my specially: helping people to organize themselves to turn an idea -a dream!- into a concrete project. Most of the time, a few tips on how to start make already a big difference!
