About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Seeing northern lights for real !!

ABOUT ME

I should say : Teacher, musician, traveller, in order of lasting time in my life. But my best life moments were spent during travels and on stage...
I'm actually a mathematics teacher in public school. I used to be a professional musician, as a player and teacher. I'm married with my wonderful loving wife Anaïs and we have two kids.

PHILOSOPHY

Questions seems to be sometimes more important than answers. I try to catch the moment, as the eternity, those both infinities aren't they circling together ?
A meaning of life ?
The answer is in the question... ;-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

A little bit disappointed by the evolution of the "couchsurfing" system, I still want to believe in a global HUMAN system, evolving and growing up based on fraternity, respect and liberty. Not in a global economical system based on values, money and fame.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A wonderful trip in Finland in February 2011. I've been hosted by several couchsurfers, and had only positive experiences. The same in South Africa in February 2012.
We've only hosted a few people in my house, but each experience was really great...
We wait for you now ! ;-)

I love to learn anything I don't know yet. How do you say "I'm happy" in swahili ? How do I can fix a broken watch with a noodle ?
