CURRENT MISSION

to meet different kinds of people with their own personality, history, culture...

ABOUT ME

Concerning my personality, I'm an open-minded guy, maybe a little shy for the fist time I see people but I like to speak with all kind of people. I'm a "cool" guy because I usually take time to do things and because I'm like this ^^ ! I like to share things, disinterested relationships, open-minded and tolerant people, to walk through nature, to have a beer in a cafe during summer...

For the rest, you must have to discover me through a meeting, that's the best I think !

PHILOSOPHY

Each men has his own culture, personality, history... so we must respect each person when they do the same (that's an evidence).

I don't believe in something in religion, because of consequences in war, power and economic problems historically... but I respect all believers and all religions (except when believers want to say that their religion is the best or when they do some propaganda).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to help people who come to visit France by proposing them a couch or some good time with a drink to make exchanges between different cultures/ways of life... and to make some visit of my city of course !

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During the summer in 2010, I've made a trip in Ireland with 2 french friends during 2 weeks. We have visited Dublin, Cork, and the west coast until the Conemara. We have done some couchsurfing at Cork, Kenmare, Dingle (Dunkin) and Limerick.
It was a great experience because we met totally different people, because there were young people alone or in housemate, a family, an older man... and differents kind of view about the society/ways of life... to give some exemple, we were in a totally wood house near a forest at Kenmare to a 40 years old man (approximately ^^) in gap with modern life, or in a big familly house near Limerick who received them very well... it's different experiences, so I liked it!

In may 2011, I've done a couchsurfing event at Guérande near Nantes in a "paludier" house (somebody who collects some salt), and it was very nice to met the Nantes's couchsurfers during 2 days with some camping in the garden !

Recently I've hosted some different couchsurfers, which whom I spent a good moment !

Interests

For my tastes, I like music (listen all kind of music like rock, punk, world music, classic, traditionnal, reggae, ska, hip hop underground but no RnB or commercial hip hop..., go sometimes in live concert in bars/pubs, sing in a "baroque" chorus), sports (to see sports events on tv, to practice tennis, football, badminton, bicyle, run sometimes...), to read (popular newspapers, some books like "the lord of the rings", the "Dahlia Noir"...), to see movies (thrillers, author movies, spies movies...), to meet people in bars/pubs or anywhere else to speak with new people...
