About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I've graduated and worked for 6 months. Now It's time to expand my mind. I'm going to travel with a friend by bike across Europe. The first countries are France, Spain & Portugal. The we leave our bikes in Malaga and go by plain to Australia.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm still looking for some answers and I'm trying to find them on a trip away from everything I know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: This is very important to me. I really need music, to blow off steam, to help me dealing with problems, to forget everything,... I love many styles of music. My favourite artists are Neil Young, Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen and Eric Clapton.
When I go out with friends I prefer techno music.

Books: I enjoy reading, when I have enough time. I read all different kind of books. Now I'm reading The Dark Tower cycle of Stephen King. Books I have in mind to read after these: On the road (J. Kerouac), Heavier than heaven (biography of K.Cobain), Count of monte cristo (Dumas),... and the list goes on. Too bad we can't buy the time to read together with the book.

Movies: I really enjoy movies. The best movies I saw this year: Control, The assassination of Jesse James by the coward Robert Ford, There will be blood, Into the wild
