CURRENT MISSION

exploring myself

ABOUT ME

A very good friend of mine told me once: "It's not that you are undecided, but you want to prepare extremely well the plunge you're about to do". I like this description. What else, I often like the extremes and thus I'm full of contradictions... I like experiencing in order to know the world. But I wish at the same time to stop experiences and begin durable things!

PHILOSOPHY

I like to know where I am going. I like going, anyway.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Does couchsurfing without being a couchsurfer yet count? ;) I mean that I surfed some friends' couch around Europe this year, and I offered one to some other friends. But I suppose it's not the same thing...

Interests

I LOVE cooking and bike riding. And all things that make you feel alive, that approach you to nature, that activate your body, that stimulate your senses.
Yes, I'm a bit decadent, if you want to.
I cannot help watching and studying a map, when there is one around me (geographer after all, I stared at the globe in childhood already).
I like discussing with people, when the other is open-minded. Especially about politics.
I like landscapes.
