About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Find an occupation and a place to live

ABOUT ME

A French guy looking at America..
A million years ago, when the chicken wings were at war with the fat ducks, a super-sized robot with blond hair and a tan came to reconciliate both sides.
That's when I was born.
The rest of the story is yours to get!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm staring at the universe. My grandmother told me the day I entered university that I had to look like I wasn't surprised by anything in order to succeed in life. I say, fuck that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been silent for many months, but now it is time to come back. I have not hosted many couchsurfers yet for I have long been a student. Too long. I think that couchsurfing goes beyond that though and I am so glad to have met all the people that are making this project happen.

Interests

Many interests so the BOX will be too small to contain it all. In general I like the universe and what it contains, I do not turn that much into a shake zoo-lah. I love starry nights and Orion in particular seems to be a recurrent constellation of mine. I like the sound of water too and the animals it contains, in particular sea lions who I think are not that far from us in the evolution process. They clap hands and they walk on each other like a busy day in the subway. I like music too but there is another box for that. Next!

  • animals
  • singing
  • music
