About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience each thing fully. Good things and bad things.

ABOUT ME

Well, it's definitely difficult to choose things to say about oneself. So I will just say: humor is very important to me, I'm interested in almost everything, I belong for good to the side of people who deeply would like the world to be a better place and think this always starts with individual and personal way of handling life and world. That said without any innocence or ingenuousness: I know how much world and life don't look like Disneyland. And please don't forget English is not my first language: it's very important because I wouldn't probably put things like that in French. I wouldn't like these words to sound childish. Or too serious.

PHILOSOPHY

To be discussed for hours in pubs, flats, cars, trains...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I did couchsurf before knowing CS: I have always managed to ask friends of friends of friends, you know... and I have always liked meeting new people, so now I do it much more with CS. I like arriving in a new person's life, finding out a new universe and see what happens. I have always been curious about how people live (in a general and complete meaning). And of course, any time a friend of friend needed a couch, I had always been ready to help. It's such a pleasure to be helpful (so it's actually selfish to be generous, if you see what I mean).

Interests

Music, books, and movies are my basic and necessary daily food. But I'm interested in almost everything: politics, art, food, words, nature, pictures, people's stories, history, animals, spirituality, games...
I like reading, writing, talking, sharing, dancing, singing, acting, swimming, hiking, yoga,learning languages and traveling of course.

Music, Movies, and Books

As I said, they are my necessary food. I can't live without. And choosing my favorites is too hard, there are too many to fit here. To be found out when we meet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two amazing things I've done:
Para-gliding, because this is REALLY being like a bird.
Diving in the Caribbean Sea: another world, such a silence.
Two amazing things I've seen:
Californian sunrise on the morning of my thirtieth birthday.
Californian sunset on the way from LA to San Francisco.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning anyway, whatever it is.
I love sharing, whatever it is: conversations of course, ideas, stories, a coffee, a meal, a moment, a song, a joke, a smile... all the things which life is made of.
I could teach of course a little bit of French. I think it is my job...
