ABOUT ME
wawww...
what to say... ?! arrgh, i'm not really talented to describe myself!
i think i'm an easy-going person, friendly and really curious about others, their culture, language... made me study sociology and ethnology these years.
i'm moving quite all the time, going to visit some friends everywhere, traveling, always wanting to learn new things... yeah sometimes it's a bit tiring (for myself especially!)!
but even if i'm sometimes hyperactive i think i also know how to calm down, and taking time just to chat, listen, see and appreciate what i live at the moment.
PHILOSOPHY
not juging the others, nor myself.
listening, watching the things truly, being honest with myself; keep my ideals and my dreams even if sometimes it's hard!
and try and never fall into a boring life...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
hosting last year when i had a flat in grenoble, surfing now!
both are great, i love being hosted and on the other hand it's really cool to host someone and being able to help him/her to discover my place and culture.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
so many great experiences in couchsurfing... people who hosted me, or that i just met in a meeting... it was always so nice, simple and just friendly :)
i love couchsurfing, it's one of the best way of making your trips really deep and interesting
Interests
interests... there are so many!
traditional musics and dances take me quite a lot of time; folk bals are really conviviality places, everybody dances the one with the other. i attend to bals in my area, and to festivals quite everywhere! we're also putting up an association in Grenoble with some friends, in order to diffuse these musics. otherwise i'm fond of meeting people, having great and long discussions around a good beer! each meeting is like a new universe which opens. i love traveling and discovering new landscapes and new ways of thinking. and i like reading, having good walks in the mountains, arriving on top and being so just happy! poetry, all sorts of musics, juggling, trying to play the accordion, to watch and sometimes doing performing arts, creating projects with people (i studied for three years at university theatre and cultural events' organization). i like people'smiles and looks, and watching the mountains, laugh, sunny mornings, parties, dancing, and above all living life...
