ABOUT ME

Sentimental and emotional, I tend to act upon my intuition and get attached/used fast to new people/new situations. When I like sth/sb, I go 100% for it. Have experienced many things in life but I still feel very naive, a bit like I don't really learn from my experiences. However, I get over things and move on pretty fast; and also have a practical/business rational side which prevents me to go completely nuts;-) I m a risk-taker and always look for adventure, like to experience everything, i don't wanna die stupid...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I did a lot of backpacking with Hospitality Club and Couchsurfing when I was a student.

I enjoyed this adventurous life a lot, but now I'm in a different chapter of my life (lots of work, not much time to travel a round but a comfortable life, which is what I like at the moment ;)).

I don't really have time to hang out, but I do have a spare room, so I'm thinking this might help one or two person (only quiet people please, I wanna sleep at nights ;)) looking at the last minute for a place to stay for the night.

Only last minute requests and preferably only for one night.

Interests

intercultural learning, games, travelling, languages, badminton, skate, markets, cooking, dancing, reading, sociology, psychology, philosophy, economics, politics. I actually like everything that makes me travelling, concretely, in my mind or by experiencing new sensations...
I like ambiguity, originality and gentle chaos.

Music, Movies, and Books

Favorite books: "La part de l'autre" (Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt", "Les echelles du Levant" (Amin Maalouf), "Les identites meurtrieres"(Amin Maalouf), "For those I loved"(Martin Gray), "The analyst" (John Katzenbach), "Le triomphe de la cupidite" (Joseph Stiglitz), and all Harlan Coben novels.

Favorite song: "Né en 17 à Leidenschtad" (Jean-Jacques Goldman). In general my favorite music style to dance is
reggae & dancehall or 80s, and to listen at home 80s kitsch romantic songs & other oldies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Waking up right for the sunrise on some turkish beach where i was sleeping along with a friend and a random dog that came to protect us, and being absolutely thrilled by this feeling of intense freedom. Felt very close to my inner self and at the same time deeply connected to everything around me, very special moment..
