Former producer/director of historical documentaries currently learning Chinese (我的中文水平不太好但我们可以聊天中文) in order to work in China and pursue my dream gold : create kung-fu movies and documentaries to educate the masses.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I guess like everyone on this social network ^^ : "I love travelling and meeting new people, blablabla...."

More seriously I always hated to go to visit a place and only meet others travelers in hostel. All my life I saw thousands of tourist in my home town of Paris who never speak with French people because they are hanging to their little guide or the English pub where the locals never go to.

If you visit a country and don't meet its habitants I don't understand the point of travelling, therefore CS was a nice surprise and I'm really to glad to be part of this community.

Interests

Cinema, documentaries, hiking, visiting every museum as possible, urban exploration, and socializing with a beer.

Music, Movies, and Books

one band : Alabama 3
one book : Le Juif errant est arrivé
one movie : The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
one series : Generation Kill

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't like the title of this section, I shall rename it "AMAZING THINGS I WISH YOU COULD DO AS WELL".
So you should :
- explore the forbidden part of the catacombs of Paris
- cross the USA in a greyhound bus
- ride a jet ski along the Neva river in Saint Petersburg

Teach, Learn, Share

I barely mastered anything that I could teach, except :
- to cook delicious French pancake
- video editing

If you could teach me
- to sing
- to cook some nice recipe
I will be forever in your debt
