A 27 year old Mediterranean having chosen the hustle of Paris as his daily playlist.

My rituals are :
🏙️Walking and connecting with the urban environment: its ambient sounds, visual identity, street life, mutations
🏊‍♂️Swimming 5 times a week,
🤔 Reading engineering-related papers during office hours, and geopolitics/sociology/philosophy during my free time
🌌 Leaving planet earth once a month to an opéra/Techno music
🎥Watching, depending on the agenda, a slow-but-engaging film d'auteur - after Chantal Akerman, I'm currently focusing on Christian Petzold.

⚠️ I will not hesitate to immediately decline AI-generated requests, let alone those written in a language I do not mention as one I speak.

I also believe that stating why you selected my profile among dozens of others is a minimum requirement. :))

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I can't quite remember how I stumbled upon this wonderful community - perhaps it was just a lucky coincidence!

Since then, the people I've met and connected with have added a profound layer of human connection to my solo city breaks, sparking joy, amazement and empathy.

Let's keep CS an authentic, fun and inspiring place!

音乐、电影和书籍

I perceive music and cinema as a gate that opens to my inner self and to other people's selves.

I cherish that moment when I'm watching the closing credits of a social realism/documentary movie, and experiencing a mixture of feelings spanning compassion, melancholy, injustice, euphoria, etc. The best part is when it's followed with a Q& A with the producer and you get to interact with them.

Music wise, every genre is correlated to an environment & state of mind. Slow Andalusian music for breakfast, high-BPM techno music for commutes and underground Parisian clubs, and otherworldly Ambient music for work.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Genuine and positive vibes. I'm both introspective and logical thinker, so I'm always up for reflecting on serious topics like the urban planning policies of your hometown or questioning aspects of conservative/liberal lifestyles, or less serious ones.. I can't think of any right now, haha.
I'm a great listener, and empathy is one of my strongest traits. Let's share thoughts and personal experiences.
Almost everything in a city draws my attention: sitting on a terrace in a car-free area, exploring an industrial and/or gentrified neighborhood, train/ship spotting, or engaging with all kinds of artistic & intellectual expressions (techno clubs, museums, opéra, seminars.. you name it).
