Why I'm on Couchsurfing
I would like to meet people from everywhere just to have a different perspective and get a better feeling of where I am travelling when I am a guest.
Music, Movies, and Books
I have very strange tastes in music going from classicals to dubstep and country, I mostly rely on the moment to decide what I want to listen to. Favorite artists: Johnny Cash, NWA, Cowboys Fringants, Dead Obies, Gilles Vigneault. I am a pretty huge fan of cinema in general, trying to watch movies whatever the origin, the language or the time of production. Once again I like almost everything as long as the movie itself is clever in a way or another. A few of my favorites: One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, American Beauty, Requiem for a Dream, Incendies, Mommy. For books I particulary like old classics and poetry: anything by Hemingway, Zola, Camus. I read War and Peace at the moment.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
A few years ago I crossed Canada by bicycle while carrying my luggage in a trailer, pedaling almost 8000 kms in a summer leaving me plenty of stories to tell.
Teach, Learn, Share
I like to talk about politics in general and love to debate of hard ethical subjects (no worries if you prefer to talk about the weather).
What I Can Share With Hosts
I have several skills that could be interesting for an host: -Bicycle repair skills (worked in a shop for some time) -Good person to practice French, English or even Spanish and Swedish -Very decent cook (probably the French blood)
