ABOUT ME

I've spent a few years traveling all around he world, meeting people, exchanging ideas, time, fun and music and bringing back home some nice pictures.
Now I'm more settle down but still happy to meet new people.
I'm into perm-culture and organic way of life, despite the fact that I'm living in a city, far from a piece of land to grow.

I've spend about 1 year in Thailand, a few month in Vienna from where I've been able to visit a lot of eastern city as Prague, Budapest ...
I've also traveled in England and Ireland trough the CS community and I had real great moments !

Anyway, there is way more to say than in a web description but the way to know a little bit more about me and my work is to have look at my web site : http://www.samten.fr

I'm also interested in music and ethnico-musicology, I'm playing as soon as i can with people to jam with my flutes.

I love to visit old and magic places like temples or rain forest where i can spend a lot of time contemplating and meditating.

PHILOSOPHY

I've grown up in a Buddhist family, so I've been surrounded by a peaceful environment. I try to do my way on the "middle way" ... I fear excess that brought people to strange things as violence, unproductive craziness ...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm happy to meet people and share diner or a tea with CS people when i can.
I'm not a "late party guy", I prefer a diner with a good glass of wine and a good chat than clubbing ( I have some earing issues and I can't stand loud noise )
If i have free time i enjoy to make discover my city to the host around.
