ABOUT ME

I'm not the best at describing myself. Let's say I'm someone quite easy to live with, open to any subjet and discussion that comes in mind and hardly annoyed. I'm also excited by any new idea. I can be restless when it is time to party or discover new things.

PHILOSOPHY

Constantly challenging your beliefs is how one may hope to reach some truth.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I first went on couchsurfing because it was recommended to me by so many great people.
I stay on couchsurfing because I met so many great people, and hope to still do so :)

HOW I PARTICIPATE

I haven't been on couchsurfing for a while, but I've recently got back to it.
I recently moved to Toronto, will soon get a studio close to York University (where I work) and possibly be able to host lost travelers then :) Starting October 3rd, don't hesitate to drop a message if you need a couch :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a few people back in Paris. I also shared a few drinks in Paris and in Rome: I had a great time and would be happy to do it again.
I slept at 3 peolple's house thanks to couchsurfing. I couldn't believe how lucky I was to get to know such friendly people so easily, to share so many intimate stories. It really was something !! A great thanks to them !

Centres d'intérêt

As a lot of people : music, litterature, cinema, art... Music in particular, as I am slowly building a vinyl collection :)
But also a bit of philosophy, languages and science. Science is a big part of my life: I studied physics and cognitive sciences, and just finished my PhD thesis on the perception of colors using artificial intelligence algorithms as model of human brains. So if you're interested in any of these subjects I am sure we could find things to talk about :)
I generally welcome opportunities to broaden my mind, and meeting new people, sharing eachother's experience is often the way to do it.
I love hitchhiking, I had some of my most exciting traveling experiences. It makes possible to meet great kinds of people you couldn't meet otherwise, and allow variability and human trust influence in your trip... like couchsurfing :)
Finally, I love partying and losing myself to dance, on electronic music mostly.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

Well, you're welcome to teach me everything you want and share with me any of your interests: I still feel like a young boy discovering the world after all, and try to remain so. If there's anything I feel I can share or teach, I'll be happy to do so.
