About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To find the words.

ABOUT ME

Would say I'm an easy-going person.
I'm curious and I want to get to know people and other cultures.
Shyness is a work in progress.
I really like feeling that I'm changing thanks to people I meet or to artistic experiences I make.

PHILOSOPHY

"Tout ce que tu ne sais pas donner te possède." André Gide

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My "couch-avaibility" depends on roommates. :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met Barbara through Couchsurfing when she was in Dijon for a few weeks. It was really nice getting to know her.
I've surfed in the UK and it was a very nice experience!

Interests

I love discovering local artists, as well as going to national exhibitions, going to concerts, seeing plays, watching new movies.
I also enjoy taking pictures (at least I try), reading of course, studying languages
and travelling!

Music, Movies, and Books

Baudelaire, Cocteau, Gide, Sarah Kane, Camus, Jane Austen...
And right now everything by the French philosoph Jacques Rancière (can only recommand!).

I enjoy folk music, rock, especially from the sixties or the seventies. I love The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Joan Baez, The Velvet Underground, The Doors, the Smiths...

I fell in love with the film Control, by Anton Corbijn.
Gus Van Sant (Elephant, Paranoid Park...), Stanley Kubrick, David Lynch, Miyazaki, Jacques Demy...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking on a bridge in London on a Wednesday morning, the sunlight blinded me and I was listening to great British bands.

Teach, Learn, Share

Not sure of what I can teach, I do like sharing points of view and think you can learn a lot from everyone.
