About Me

CURRENT MISSION

just moved in at Shanghai

ABOUT ME

Aerospace engineer in China. I'm president of a parties commitee in a little village in the south of France (50 citizens): I organise crazy parties running on several days just for fun. For example: easter celebration takes place on 4 days and is conclude by scotish games (we wear kilts and throw trees in the grass)...
I'm a dynamic person who enjoy whatever new and never experienced before.
I really believe that any experiment is interesting: try traditional dishes, practice bunjie jumping and skydive, cross a river by night completly drunk, build a swimming pool in my pick up and so much...

PHILOSOPHY

When a star lights twice stronger she lights half time.

Meaning: I prefer to have a short and rich life than preserved myself (so: get bored) and die old.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

thx to my beloved hosts!

Interests

I really enjoy the feeling to visit new places, this kid's eyes looking at something different and sometimes weird, beautifull or surprising. I've been international student then expatriate several times so I really know how much i'm a inter-cultural addict.

Music, Movies, and Books

i studyied 12 years Clarinet but i really like to listen to various kind of music: classic, Salsa, Bandas, Raggae, raggaton, Electronic, dancefloor, Rock (festivals), jungle (i.e Prodigy: "I'm a firestarter!!!") DUB, drum n bass, RNB, Irish, bagpipes or gipsy music (The non-smoking orchestra) are still not enough for me!
I'm also crazy about cine, i m able to spend one week end only watchin movies (i mean 7/8 movies a day), i wanna watch everything.

Books I like: only Airplanes/photography/design books and touristic guides.

i'm turning more and more to photography activity...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Buy a plane ticket during a party 6 hours before flying.

That was awesome, I had to do it, no regret!
