About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learn German :/

ABOUT ME

Freshly arrived in Aachen to start my post-doc in Maths ! I wish I had been a rock star or an astronaut, but well...

PHILOSOPHY

Information is not knowledge. Knowledge is not wisdom. Wisdom is not truth. Truth is not beauty. Beauty is not love. Love is not music. Music is the best.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hmm, by using this website...?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed and hosted a few times. Each experience was different, but interesting in its own way. I really like the concept, and hope I'll get to have more CS stories to tell (to live actually) ...

Interests

I like : music, hitch-hiking, good food, maps, speaking truly to people, colours, Roger Federer, cycling through town at night, words and languages, all the Swansea pubs...

I don't like : seafood, hypocritical people, the last song of the last chili peppers record, partial differential equations...

Some movies : Vanilla Sky, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Match point, Edward Scissorhands...

Some books that helped me grow up : L'étranger [Camus], La cantatrice chauve [Ionesco], Forförerens Dagbog [Kierkegaard], Théorie de Galois [Gozard], Crime and Punishment [Dostoievski]

I also love the British series "Peep Show", I would recommend it to everybody!
