ABOUT ME

Voyager, découvrir c'est bien résumé, non?
Travelling, discovering, good summary isn't it?

Here we can write whatever we want, it is too much :D

I said : "travelling". That's a big part of my life since 2005.

And discovering. Always being curious and surprised about the daily life.
A french adventurer says : " When nothing is planned everything is possible ". He applied it and he is able to meet all kind of people.

Some of my favorites "quotes".

We must pick the cherries with the tail. I was already struggling with the hand. (Coluche)

On TV they say every day: "There are three million people who want jobs." This is not true : the money would be enough. (Coluche)

Most of our imports come from overseas.(G.BUSH the son)

If you need anything, call me. I will tell you how to do without. (Coluche)

The Chamber of Deputies, half are good for nothing. The others are ready for anything. (Colcuhe)

The evil begins with indifference and resignation. (Françoise HERITIER)

Doubt is the beginning of wisdom. (Aristote)

The curve of your eyes goes around my heart. (Paul ELUARD)

J'ai perdu tout le temps que j'ai passé sans t'aimer... (Le Tasse)

Lorsque vos yeux me parlent, c'est mon coeur qui vous écoute. (Michel VANER)

Dans la vie j'aime deux choses, la rose et toi. La rose pour un jour et toi pour la vie. (Anonym)

Only those who are dirty wash themselves.(Anonym)

These quotes are a reflection of my personality I think. Humor and logic. Hmmm, for logic, I just try ...

PHILOSOPHY

Ouh là c'est dur à dire.

Waouww, it's complicated to explain.

When I wrote it, in another "shebang" (is it the right word?) : I wrote : "Humor and logic".

That's not far from what I am I think

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Je peux accueillir chez moi pour une nuit (ou plus). Bien, sûr, je peux aussi faire visiter pour une journée voire plus.

I can welcome at home for a night (or more). Of course, I can also help to visit for a day (maybe more)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had 2 CouchSurfing nights in LILLE in France. And I met several times several CouchSurfers in DARMSTADT in Germany and also once in FRANKFURT AM MAIN in Germany.

Also once in Paris, quickly. From 10 pm to 6 am ...

Interests

Mes centres d'intérêts sont assez nombreux.
Derrière chaque personne et chaques histoire, il y a forcément quelque chose d'intéressant. Alors j'essaye de m'intéresser à beaucoup de choses.

I am really open-minded. I consider (that) "behind" every single person there is something interesting to know
I like many differents sports.

I look football even if I do it less and less.
I begin to look handball

Football, I like but I am not addicted. I like less and less. Music in general. I am not fond of classic music but I like to listen to it sometimes finally ... etc

About travel in general, the places I indicated are only those where I have been several days. Like all of you there are many more where I have been less than 24 hours ...

Music, Movies, and Books

"J'irai dormir à Hollywood. "
For the no french speaker, that's a pity, this movie should be translated in many languages.
This movie is from "Antoine de Maximy. He also wrote a book. Also only in french I guess. And I quickly understood he was not a writer. But it makes the book so simple to read and so interesting. If you speak French, read it ...

"Pressens tu un bonheur" (Frère Roger de Taizé). I am not a good lector but I read this book several times ...

"La libération des camps racontés par ceux qui l'ont vécu. A wonderful book about the liberation of the camp at the end of the World War II.

For the music, there are at least bretons I like.
Cécile CORBEL who has am arvellous voice. She is playing harp with 2 musicians and sometimes a third one.
and absolutely different : "Les Ramoneurs de Menhirs". Celtic punk.

Cecile CORBEL. A star in Japan, also playing mainly in France and Germany

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Là tout de suite : ce qui me vient à l'esprit : c'est mon voyage au Burkina-Faso. Seulement 7 jours. Mais que d'anecdotes !!!

1) A trip to Burkina-Faso in 2005. Just amazing ...
2) Being a long-term volunteer for the World Youth Day in 2016. And I read during the opening mass. Around "300 000 to 500 000" people in front of me!!!
3) In 2018. Running the marathon in Krakow. And 2 weeks later another on in Salzburg!!! !!!
