Why I'm on Couchsurfing
Call it mid life crisis :) I actually discovered couchsurfing while still living in Paris, where I became used to hosting. I went to surfing myself more recently and found it awesome. It’s a great way of experiencing a place, knowing people, sharing experiences. Definitely the best way to travel.
Music, Movies, and Books
Definitely classical music, some contemporary jazz as well, a few good oldies. As for books, you'll see them by yourself, they're pretty much all over the place. And... perhaps I shouldn't tell, but I can get addicted to TV series.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I can't think of having done anything really amazing, being a rather average kind of guy, I'm afraid... sorry about that, folks.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can give an abridged course on French (or Lebanese) wines and teach some French recipes if you like to cook (provided you don't mind garlic): you'll never miss your mayonnaise, omelette or ratatouille again. Promise. Learn? I’d like to learn everything about everything. Quite hopeless, indeed… but no doubt you’ll contribute.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Experiences. Museums. Books. Music. Food. Booze. Feel free to contribute to any of the former. Of course a bed (linen included) and a bathroom (towels included).
My Interests
Music and more generally art. Wine. Photography. Literature. TV series. Silly espionage novels. You name it …
