Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I think beer should be cold and boots should be dusty.
ABOUT ME
Hi i'm 45% redhead, 13% literatur, 22%dinosaur, and i think the rest is basically water.
Love to wear fried egg costume in any themed party and collect shoes. Tons of shoes. Serenade people in rap when drunk. I wish I was Batman but I get too excited about things like candy, black and beardy musicians and baby cats to be dreadfull all the time. Plus i don't own a batmobile. Yet.
PHILOSOPHY
My greatest vice is cheese. Nothing else reigns over my life.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I signed in in 2009 for a trip to New York but then I found a hostel called BELLECLAIRE which was really fun so i did'n try the couchsurfing experience at that time. I'm back on the website now because i want to live a real city experience, meet new people and see what's really going on. I live in Paris since 2007 and it took me about a year to really fit in but now i'm like the most amazing guide and i'd love to share stuff parisians like. Partying with couchsurfers in Paris was crazy and really made me want to participate more in the project.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have no couchsurfing experience for now, except for the surfers i've met randomly while they were staying at my friends.
Interests
I love building towers with my books, buying books, reading books, talking about them and smell them. I love music so much that i like to have a soundtrack for every moment of my life. I know that sentence is really boring but its true. I am passionnate with art, architectur and patrimony which is basically old ruins of olds buildngs. I work at l'Institut National d'Histoire de l'Art at the exhibition department.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Once i was drunk bicyling my way home in Paris, listening to the song Shadowplay by Joy Division, and i crossed a guy on a motocycle draging a trailer with an old brown couch on it. It still had white lace pillows on the top.
