About Me

ABOUT ME

I've traveled a lot. I like diversity.
I want to experience as much as I can in a nice and interesting way. I like to share, to discover, to create, experience and make people happy...

PHILOSOPHY

Collecting qualities, new colours and tunes.

"Happiness is to make happy" or in French : "Le bonheur, c'est d'en donner"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people.

Interests

Everything can be of interest...

I'm very interested in ideas, in art, in music, in wild nature, in seashells, in dynamics, in design, in butterflies, in very old pictures, in flea markets, in good stories, in groovy music, in whales and dolphins, in waves, clouds, wind and water, in good wine...
