Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I've hosted with my flatmate a few times in London, and I surfed a lot in Mexico a couple of years ago. I also meet up with people for Spanish/English language exchanges now and then.
Musique, films et livres
I like books and films, mostly about or by dysfunctional people. Stuff/people like Murakami, Tao Lin, Requiem for a Dream, Erlend Loe, Miranda July, Spun, Kerouac, Withnail and I. At the moment I'm reading a lot about Latin American history and culture. Music ranges from Mount Kimbie, These New Puritans, HEALTH, Yeasayer, Strokes, Four Tet, Outkast, Radiohead, Hudson Mohawke, Brand New, Biffy Clyro, Foals, Regina Spektor. Lots basically!
Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
I've taught classes ranging from 5 year old boys in Austria to elderly Jordanian businessmen in my previous career an English teacher.
Enseigner, apprendre, partager
I could teach basic guitar and Irish language I guess. I'd like to learn how to cook more things.
