CURRENT MISSION

Being. (It takes a life to exist.)
Trying (to live, to enjoy, to get better...). Always trying. Sometimes, succeed.

ABOUT ME

I am what I like to call a "sociable solitary" person : not taking too much place and needing to be quiet alone some time, but always enjoying meeting other people.

I sleep twelve hours a day as a Japanese in a Jim Jarmusch's film.

PHILOSOPHY

"C'mon, someone can do it for me !"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Travelling without meeting others is not only travelling in the wrong way, but with the wrong vehicule.

(and sometimes hosts are great cooks !)

Interests

Reading and going to the cinema is a good sum up of both my interests and way of life. But I also write a lot (plays, poems, scripts...), paint a bit, and go out too much.
I'm starving for beauty in all sort of ways.

Favorite topic of conversation ? Arts (every kind of, from painting to cooking), philosophy, politics, love and sex...

I'm not very sporty, but I like long walks and hiking, swimming (mostly in oceans), skiing, climbing, and every kind of physical activity which is combined to beauty : running ? Bah. But hiking in beautiful landscapes ? Oh god, yes yes yes please.

Music, Movies, and Books

From middle age composers to Klaus Nomi's cold wave, through biggest jazz divas and popular french singers of the 50' : ecclectism is the thing, thanks to my beloved vinyls collection and my friends who make me discover music in its whole diversity.

It is quite the same thing in literature and cinema, but as I know so much more about these, I can't sum up what I like. So, let's meet and discuss it !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking for three days in Landmannalaugar in Iceland with absolutely no experience and wearing ridiculously short shorts. The lady at the beginning told me it was crazy and that I was going to die. Well... I'm here.
But, it was REALLY stupid. And amazing. I would definitely make the same mistake twice.

(Oh, and I swam completely naked in at least two oceans. Waiting for the third one.)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach French (obviously), share my knowledge and passion about cinema and litterature.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Huhuhu.

(seriously, if you're hosting me, don't hesitate to ask me to bring some french food, I'd be glad to)
