Organising concerts, drawing and photo exhibitions, film screenings, conferences, poetry events... publishing books on underground art and music scene https://www.pourlasuitedumonde.org/ http://www.barbapop.com https://www.instagram.com/seb_escande PHILOSOPHY "Un voyage se passe de motifs. Il ne tarde pas à prouver qu'il se suffit à lui-même. On croit qu'on va faire un voyage, mais bientot c'est le voyage qui vous fait, ou vous défait." Nicolas Bouvier.

CURRENT MISSION Visiting most beautiful cities (till now my favorite ones are Ljubljana, Thallinn, Haifa and Bruges) ABOUT ME Sometimes reserved and discreet but i talk with passion of subjects i know well!.I have many hobbies: Middle-east history, photo, drawing, walking,etc... I enjoy showing my city to foreigners and help them making good photos(main hobby), so please take an USB disk with you to download photos we shot together! I support Ukraine and I help refugees . Welcome to secular Israelis who agree with a 2 states solution ( like people of kibbutzim in which i volunteered for many years ). PHILOSOPHY I am not member of any religion but i enjoy learning about different "acceptable" religions !

On bike / walk trip in Scotland until September so I can’t host for the moment. And sorry in advance if you receive some weird message, the new app and my very old phone sent them before I finish it and I can’t edit them after, until you accept the chat request (so I can’t even send a new message to complete or explain..) / ! \ Important to read before sending me a message / ! \ I receive a lot of requests, and I can't answer them all. If you want an answer, please send me a personalized message (as my friend Noël taught me, if you can replace my name by any other name, this is NOT a personalized message) showing that you're at least interested in reading my profile (I promise there won't be any exam at the end ;) ). Especially if you have no or few opinion on the site! I won't be answering any more impersonal messages, just asking for accommodation - I get too many of them. Thank you ! And please read the part about "my home", it's full of important information to know before writing to me! / ! \ Important à lire avant de m’envoyer un message / ! \ Je reçois beaucoup de demandes, et je ne peux répondre à toutes. Si vous voulez une réponse, envoyez moi un message personnalisé, montrant que vous vous êtes intéressé un minimum à lire mon profil (promis il n’y aura pas d’interrogation à l’issue ;) ). Et ce d’autant plus si vous n’avez aucun avis sur le site ! Je ne répondrai plus aux messages impersonnels demandant juste un hébergement, j’en reçois trop. Merci ! Et s'il vous plait, lisez la partie à propos de "mon domicile", elle contient plein d'informations importantes à savoir avant de m'écrire ! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ It's the most difficult part to fill in... I work as a general practitioner in the Rhône-Alpes region. But it's reducing to describe myself just with my job ! I am also involved in various associations that work to promote sustainable food and global health (in particular l'Alliance Santé Planétaire - https://santeplanetaire.org/). I am vegetarian since 2014, and I feel good :). I've discovered so many tasty alternatives to meat and fish. One amazing thing I've done !! And I try (and love) to cook vegan as much as possible. The easiest way to describe me will be to ask my friends :) I like so much things in the life that it will be too difficult to sum up them... But in few words, I like to meet people, to learn language and culture, to see the world... In other words, to share. PHILOSOPHY Enjoy your life... and share it !

It's a fun way for me to keep a little souvenir from the amazing people I meet 🌟 ----------------------------------------------------------------- 🏠 𝙃𝙤𝙪𝙨𝙚 𝙍𝙪𝙡𝙚𝙨 – 𝙋𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙨𝙚 𝙍𝙚𝙖𝙙 𝘽𝙚𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙚 𝘾𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 🫱 Mutual respect: This is the foundation.

If you come to my home, I’d love to share a moment, a meal, a story – not just a bed. 👉I work a lot, but I host to meet people, learn about cultures, and have real exchanges. If your plan is to stay on your own without talking much, it’s better to look for another host. 👉Please send your request at least one day before your arrival, unless it’s a last-minute emergency. 👉If I accept your request, confirm your arrival on Couchsurfing. And if your plans change, let me know at least the day before – it's just respectful. 👉When I travel, I always try to bring a little gift, cook a meal, or show appreciation with kindness.
