Overview
About Me
I’m a scientist who has to visit the world before leaving it. I have dedicated myself to lifelong learning and teaching what I’ve learned. I have a passion for hospitality, worked in hotels restaurants cafes for years from a simple young receptionist to a manager. Beside this I always taught in numerous courses, English and French languages, Mathematics, physics,... My major is in Telecommunication engineering and space engineering, a rocket scientist you may say!
I love to travel, and I backpacked, biked and camped in hundreds of places in the nature all around the world. my favorite is the woods, just can’t have enough of jungles and getting lost in them to survive. My target is a survival tour through the Amazons, still looking for big hearts to join me.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
When you travel you may hate the mass sometimes, but on the contrary each individual has a unique character, you just need to start speaking with them. I think I can meet dozens of lovely characters in the Coughsurfing community that I share many common interests with for a greater dialogue.

For music I prefer Classical ones, but I am a fan of good music regardless of the genre
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
As a teacher, regardless of the subject, I changed many lives by just teaching my students the difference between stupidity and wisdom and that of course is just a choice one should make. I learned how to think from my teacher and I’m thrilled that I can share it with as many as I can. Ask me about “unlearning” if we met.
Traveling a lot is another great thing! Met different cultures and traditions and learned how to respect them all.
Conferences and lectures are one of my ways to share my knowledge so having them for numerous audience is always fun and challenging.
If I find my time being wasted I read a book! And guess how many books I’ve read!
All animals love music, following my primary instinct I managed to learn playing Setar and Piano. I consider it as a language and I believe each language you learn you’ve got yourself a new personality
Teach, Learn, Share
I consider myself more as a student than a teacher cause I have always learned something from any individual that I meet. (Not always positive though, sometimes I learn not to do something which I learned is wrong) anyways you bet that I know how to learn and share ;)
