About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make every Day that I Live -> A nice Part in my Life...

ABOUT ME

Well... I love making every day that I live a nice part in my life. So, I'm always ready to do everything someone offers me to do, every new adventure... as simple as it may be. Every day can offer wonderful things.
I love travelling, discovering any kind of landscapes, meeting new persons in my life, but also keep good relations with my old friends.
I like when people around me meet together... that's why I sometimes try to create these meetings where persons are happy to get in touch with new people.
May I be a dreamer ?... or just trying to make this universal dream come true... Better World, Better Life.
Open-minded and optimistic, of course.
If you like persons who like joking, I'm one of those.

PHILOSOPHY

Feel free to dream... that's the beginning of all.
And then, make each day of your life a new page of dreams come true, whatever the size of your dream.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will obviously try my best to be a nice guest and a nice host.
I will try to get in touch with the Group of my town.
To make life easy...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had my first CS experience for New Year's Eve 2008, in North of Norway ! so awesome, that I fell in love with Couchsurfing... :p)... and then went to Brasil in Feb 08, and in Romania in July 08.
Otherwise...
When I travel, I often like stopping a little while at some good friends' home, because it's important for me to keep in touch with them.
Couchsurfing is for me a nice way to feel like an inhabitant of the place I visit, because of sharing a part of my host's daily life.
And when I host friends, I like making them feel comfortable and happy of their journey.

Interests

Music... My first language, certainly. I'm fond of playing the piano, the guitar, and singing. Sometimes composing, and I like teaching too. Watching concerts.
Travelling and discovering everything that is to discover.
I'm interested in the differences that do exist between the cultures.
... and so on...

  • concerts
  • cooking

  • languages

Music, Movies, and Books

As I often may feel emotions by listening to several kinds of music, and as I teach music too, my tastes are quite broad... but I can list a little : world music, funk, poprock, jazz, reggae, electro, classical...
The lives I meet are like movies and books.
Movies :
Books : The Alchemist...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Norway, Summer 06, never ending days... no nights, in fact.
Spain & Portugal, Summer 07, travelling with my guitar during several weeks... I've tried to play in every town I stopped, for the people in the street... funny experience, and nice musical meetings.
And I did it again ! in summer 09 : Italy, Slovenia, Croatia. Great !

Teach, Learn, Share

Sharing time... isn't this the best gift in everybody's daily life ?
Then, the rest becomes easy to do.
Share my passion of music, and other languages too.
I can eventually share about cooking a few meals of the place I come from.
