ABOUT ME

As the picture shows, I'm a bookish type of person. Cannot live without (French) literature. That's why I teach it. There is no boundary between my job and my hobby, which is nice and sad at the same time: even during vacations I keep on working. But I have fun when I'm working. I am also interested in history, especially of the 20th century,in international politics. I have been playing chess for many years, though I'm not a brilliant player.

PHILOSOPHY

"Il faut imaginer Sisyphe heureux"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I had couch surfing experiences before couch surfing even existed, through Esperanto ("Pasporta servo") - a great language.
