About Me

I wont to do so much that one lifetime maybe isn’t enough. I always try to do as many things as I can. I'm not easy bored. I like to travel and discovering new cities, cultures and nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because I like to get to know other cultures and meeting new people.
I think it opens your mind. I also think it's the best way to get to know a place by getting to know the people who live there.

Interests

Cinema, Contemporary Art, Books, curating, the weird show, piano, travelling, different cultures, people, cosiness, drinking or eating and talking together (I’m a real Burgundian).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I can appreciate all kinds of music but good music gives me goose pimples or makes me dance.

Books: Laurent Tirard’s Moviemaking Masterclass, The Age of Collage, Books from The Weird Show, Contemporary Film Directors, …

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every step I take. Because it’s always risky and it’s always easy to hide behind habit.
But in traveling I found the Sinaï desert (Egypt) pretty amazing (I loved to see that the children there are very creative and innovative in games)
and Inti Sisa in Guamote (Ecuador). It's an organization who aims at creating, through her workshops, in the center in Guamote and in indian communities, chances for offering training of high quality at a low price. It is connected with the cantonal "development plan" of Guamote.
