About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life and meet people all over the world!

ABOUT ME

Curious and not serious,
considerate and good cooker!...

PHILOSOPHY

Be positive and life will be amazing!
...
I'm never sure about what I think and I don't like so much the people who are sure about what they think.
However I know how to make choices and when I start something I want to finish it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My flatmate and I hosted a lot of people in our living room those last years, moreover I surfed in several countries: Ireland, Italy, Norway, Scotland, Germany… I did also some couch surfing meeting in Estonia (where I lived one year) and it always have been some rich and interesting experiences. I trust in humanity and CS makes it great!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My best experience it's maybe when I was hosted in Galway, in a giant share house. There was a big party, all the nationalities were here! We made a huge concert but with only bottle, feet, cooking stuff, hands... Music is the best language!

Interests

I have a high interest for art, theater, dance.
I made few photography reportages in the backstage(Cabaret and Opera).
Everything about communication fascinating me.

Nowadays I'm a free lance graphic designer. I take all my attention on the international language (body language, faces expressions, noise...). I love to see how all the languages make part of a way to be. That's why I love to meet new people and sharing with them.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love many artists! Stanley Kubrick, Godart, Gainsbourg, Brassens, Philip K.Dick, Aldous Huxley, Orwell, Beaudelaire, Cézanne ... (so classical!) I also like new ones: Austra, Kollektiv Turmstrasse, Bill Viola, Francis Alys, ...
My favorite book is "The unbearable lightness of being" of Milan Kundera or maybe "Letter to a young poet" of Reiner Maria Rilke. I like everykind of music especially the one which makes me dreaming.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

To live is a big amazing thing already... but was it when I piloted a power glider on my own or when I rebuilt an old house in the mountain or when I met this greek old man with who I'd a long discussion even if we didn't speak the same language, or just when I saw Castellucci at the theater, I don't know..

Teach, Learn, Share

I was a french teacher for one year. I know how to make good crèpes. I can share my knowledges about wine or graphic design. The thing I prefere to do is to tell crazy stories…(most of the time true!)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can teach you yoga or we can share our best recipe :)

Greece, Ireland, Italy, Slovakia, United States

Countries I’ve Lived In
