Hello everybody,

My name is Yuri. I live in Andenne, a quiet little town near Namur (BE), with my wife Meliha and our two adorable children. We can host sometimes, depending on a family calendar often quite full, and we would do our best to make your stay with us memorable.

I'm also available for meeting up in Namur quite often, and will be happy to accompany you discovery of the town.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I answer every couch request I get ASAP, I try to host as many as I can even if it has become more difficult. If I can't, I always enjoy showing city or just hangout for a drink.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We now have hosted some people when we were living in Brussels, not yet in Andenne, and never been hosted. We like to share our knowledge about city or history, and we try to take our host as often as possible for a "city discovery trip".

Interessen

Theatre is my life, but all form of art interest me. I used to draw, but not so many. I love to play the piano and to compose my own music.
I love travelling too, because it helps me on creativity, and I like to discover new places, new faces, new cultures, new philosophy (to adapt mine with what I found in the other).

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Movies : Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter, Narnia, the Name of Rose, almost all Disney, Van Helsing, Kerity, King Arthur, ... and too many other...
Music : much too many. I love classical music (Mozart, Beethoven, Lully, Brahms, Chopin, ...) as rock (RHCP, Elvis, Superbus, Kill the Young), and for me, the perfect mixt between them is Symphonic Metal (Tristania, Nightwish, Draconian, Epica, Rhapsody of Fire).
Books : I read one or two books a week, when I'm not studying or go to some friend's party... So I'm really unable to give names, cause I love nearly all I've read.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

The most incredible thing I've seen : a road. A simple road with a really wide opened land... That was so beautiful and attractive...
The most incredible thing I've done : well...I don't know. Many things come to my minde :
- To walk with a friend at three o'clok in the morning on the Namur Castle Round Path, and when the guard call us, we start running to the wood...
- To wait for the sunrise, sitting at the foot of a Burgundian virgin peak at 593 meters above sea level , and watch it slowly up its fiery sphere in the sky. That looks like a "northern lights" in miniature.
- To stay all the night long (almost) in the wood to hear the call of the deer.
- Writing the score for a short animated movie, or record voices in a sound studio for a theatre show

And, I hope, many more are coming.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Teach : well... Speaking technics, drawing, music playing and writing (improvising), history of arts or middle age specification.
Learn : all I can learn is welcome!
Share : teaching and learning isn't it already a kind of share?

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I can propose my knowledge about Belgium, which will be completed by my lovely girlfriend (who's studying archaeology and history). I can give advices about what to see in Belgium, or good places to be according to what you are looking for.
