About Me

More and more I feel I really like social contact and helping people out. Why not share part of my home for travellers ? An easy thing to do and it brings the world to my doorstep ! I'm the father of two terrific boys. I'm an English and German teacher who loves cooking, street art / graffiti, having a beer or glass of wine in good company, reading, having a nice discussion about politics or life ...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've got a kid's room I can spare, I love international contacts, I love social contacts and I'm a believer in a share economy.

So , why not ?

Also looking for nice spots to do graffiti. So far lots of work in my hometown and a quick thing in Barcelona, but looking forward to go to new cities and try something there !

Music, Movies, and Books

H. Hesse - Siddharta
Camus - L Etranger
those were lifechangers !
But lately books about (world) history, historical novels ...

Brutus is my latest favourite band - some metal/postpunk/noise combo with a great female singer. But I love going to the local blues café (MissySippy, check it out) and I listen to a wide range from jazz to funky soul to metal.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A coincidence really, but I got invited at Iftar by Chinese immigrants in Chiang Mai, Thailand - genuinely meeting people without any planning. Amazing indeed !
