Personal DescriptionI live in Central London, Vauxhall, in quite a huge flat. As I have just arrived, I am waiting to know better my flatmates before telling them : "Guess what ? Tonight, we host someone I don't even know !!"
About me, I will keep it short : I am very interested on trying new things, new cultures. In a few words, I love learning.How I Participate in CSShare what I have is the way I am participating. When you give something, it's done, you did it because you wanted to give. So please don't talk about giving back.
CouchSurfing ExperienceI used to be a newbie. I only had a few experience, but these experiences opened my mind as widely as I couldn't have imagined.Interests- Languages
- Magic tricks, Juggling
- Guitar
- Sports
PhilosophyI live my life to learn as much as I can.
So that I will be able to be the best grandfather in the World !!! :-)Music, Movies, BooksBest Movie : "The Usual Suspects" from "Bryan Singer"
Best Music : "Let go" from "Frou Frou"
Best Book : "When I was 5, I killed myself" (also published as Burt) (in French, Quand j'avais 5ans, je m'ai tué) - from Edward BurtTypes of People I enjoyVery open-minded people, with a good personality.Teach, Learn, ShareCan teach:
- languages
- magic tricks
- guitar
- juggling (balls, clubs, monocycle...etc)
Would like to learn:
- Very rare things such like, for example, yoga :-)
- Salsa and other dancesOne Amazing Thing I've Seen or DoneThere is a restaurant in Paris, very rare. It's called "in the dark". You are guided by a blind waiter or waitress. Everything is in the dark. You have to eat in the dark. It was very funny (because after 5 minutes to try finding your fork, you decide to use your fingers ;p ), and very interesting, because, as you don't know what it looks like, you have to experience it differently, with the taste, and smell.
It's also funny because, you will meet a lot of people in the same table, talking and laughing with them. In every other restaurant, you come with some people, and you only speak with them.
Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org ProjectCouchSurfing.com is one step to a different society, where people can help other people. I wish the society can be turned into a place where money is an exchange, and where the best people are people sharing the most.Locations TraveledTRAVELED: Afghanistan, Albania, Algeria, American Samoa, Andorra, Angola, Anguilla, Antarctica, Antigua and Barbuda, Argentina, Armenia, Aruba, Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Australia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Baker Island, Bangladesh, Barbados, Bassas da India, Belarus, Belgium, Belize, Benin, Bermuda, Bhutan, Bodies of water, Bolivia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Botswana, Bouvet Island, Brazil, British Indian Ocean Territory, British Virgin Islands, Brunei, Bulgaria, Burkina Faso, Burundi, Cambodia, Cameroon, Canada, Cape Verde, Cayman Islands, Central African Republic, Chad, Chile, China, Christmas Island, Clipperton Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, Colombia, Comoros, Congo (Brazzaville), Cook Islands, Coral Sea Islands, Costa Rica, Cote D'Ivoire, Croatia, Cuba, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Djibouti, Dominica, Dominican Republic, DR Congo (Kinshasa), East Timor, Ecuador, Egypt, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Eritrea, Estonia, Ethiopia, Europa Island, Falkland Islands (Islas Malvinas), France, French Guiana, French Polynesia, French Southern and Antarctic Lands, Gabon, Gaza Strip, Georgia, Germany, Ghana, Gibraltar, Glorioso Islands, Greece, Greenland, Grenada, Guadeloupe, Guam, Guatemala, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Guyana, Haiti, Heard Island and McDonald Islands, Honduras, Hong Kong, Howland Island, Hungary, Iceland, India, Indonesia, Iran, Iraq, Ireland (Republic of), Israel, Italy, Jamaica, Japan, Jarvis Island, Johnston Atoll, Jordan, Juan de Nova Island, Kazakhstan, Kenya, Kingman Reef, Kiribati, Kosovo, Kuwait, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Latvia, Lebanon, Lesotho, Liberia, Libya, Liechtenstein, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Macedonia-FYROM, Madagascar, Malawi, Malaysia, Maldives, Mali, Malta, Marshall Islands, Martinique, Mauritania, Mauritius, Mayotte, Mexico, Micronesia, Midway Islands, Moldova, Monaco, Mongolia, Montenegro, Montserrat, Morocco, Mozambique, Myanmar (Burma), Namibia, Nauru, Navassa Island, Nepal, Netherlands, Netherlands Antilles, New Caledonia, New Zealand, Nicaragua, Niger, Nigeria, Niue, Norfolk Island, North Korea, Northern Mariana Islands, Norway, Oman, Pakistan, Palau, Palmyra Atoll, Panama, Papua New Guinea, Paracel Islands, Paraguay, Peru, Philippines, Pitcairn Islands, Poland, Portugal, Puerto Rico, Qatar, Reunion, Romania, Russia, Rwanda, Saint Barthelemy, Saint Helena, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Martin, Saint Pierre and Miquelon, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Samoa, San Marino, Sao Tome and Principe, Saudi Arabia, Senegal, Serbia, Seychelles, Sierra Leone, Singapore, Slovakia, Slovenia, Solomon Islands, Somalia, South Africa, South Georgia and the South Sandwich Islands, South Korea, Spain, Spratly Islands, Sri Lanka, Sudan, Suriname, Swaziland, Sweden, Switzerland, Syria, Taiwan, Tajikistan, Tanzania, Thailand, The Bahamas, The Gambia, Togo, Tokelau, Tonga, Trinidad and Tobago, Tromelin Island, Tunisia, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Turks and Caicos Islands, Tuvalu, Uganda, Ukraine, Undersea features, United Arab Emirates, United Kingdom, United States, Uruguay, US Virgin Islands, Uzbekistan, Vanuatu, Vatican, Venezuela, Vietnam, Wake Island, Wallis and Futuna, West Bank, Western Sahara, Yemen, Zambia, Zimbabwe

May 25, 2009  Positive I've just spent two fantastic days in London and it's thanks to David (he's definitely a good host) and the beautiful weather. We had a delicious barbecue at his place and then went to the world record biggest picnic the next day.
He's a talented juggler and I'm happy he taught me a few tricks.
From Manmohan Birdi London, United Kingdom
Mar 16, 2009 Positive It was great talking to David, a very nice, chatty, genuine guy. He likes cider too which is a plus. Shame you couldn't make it to my curry event but I am sure there will be further opportunities to share some good French wine and talk about queueing!
From Michelle Wilson London, United Kingdom
Feb 16, 2009  Positive David is a really friendly guy and he always makes me laugh. I am still sorry about my bad bagel shop recommendations, I will do better next time (if you ever trust me again as an authority on english food!)
From GARAVG London, United Kingdom
Nov 12, 2008 Positive Don´t believe him- I was probably so lovely because being around someone like David makes the whole hosting experience a real pleasure, so there is no merit in my performance.
David is wonderful: kind, attentive and interesting. Be careful with him: he will insist in taking you out for dinner and there will be no point in attempting to share the bill, he will say he doesn´t need sheets because he can just sleep directly on top of the couch, and he will tiptoe around your place as in eternal debt with his host... But you should give him sheets and much more, because that is what he deserves.
From Simon Pasquet Paris, France
Nov 6, 2008  Positive David is a really nice guy, we have a lot of common interests.He is funny, smart, really nice and we can talk about a lot of things with him. I know him only since one month, but I can already say that David is someone you can really trust!
From Tom and Kat Clark Kildonan, United Kingdom
Nov 2, 2008 Positive David and Nicolas were fantastic hosts. This was our first time CSing, and we were very pleased with our experience. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome, took us to meet their wonderful friends and made sure our time in Paris was great. Can't wait to have REAL pancakes with you guys in Canada! |
