About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I,m always looking to what life has better to offer me. Just live!

ABOUT ME

Can you really fill in an "All about you" in a little box?!?!?!?!? I,ll do my best:

Intense.
I like diversity.
I,m simple.
Easy to communicate.
Open minded.
Always in search of new projects.

Sometimes, I,m wondering what could offend me... hmm

PHILOSOPHY

Always give my best. Do It.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

It has been a long time since I heard of CouchSurfing. I,m getting into it right now. A friend of mine hosts and surfs. I completely agree with the idea. It,s all about traveling, and what,s best about traveling is to meet people from the place.
Do you really get good feedback of a culture about that person at the front desk of the hotel?
I,m just signing up right now. When I,ll be back home, it will be a pleasure to host people in my little piece of earth. And if I can manage to get a little free time, it,s always good to tour my area... and make discover what best it has to offer

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far.. nothing.. I,m new..

Interests

Music:
Flamenco: aficionado al flamenco. Estuve tocando guitarra flamenca en los ultimos 9 anos. In and out... pero siempre tocando... Me encanta Vicente Amigo. Moraito rocks... Por supuesto Maestro Paco es una leyenda..

Electronic. I just enjoy listening to good progressive trance. O,Callaghan rocks.

Traveling: traveling has been part of my life in the last years. Study or work hard for a long time.. and then travel intense for another long time! I enjoy to discover new cultures, tastes, scenery.

Arts... even if I,m not a grand connaisseur, I enjoy crafts, painting. I enjoy going around museum.

Sports.. well, when I,m working or studying hard, I need to push weights... dummy sport but I enjoy it so much!
Cycling: I,m not a huge cycling fan.... but I,ve cycled from Bangkok to Vietnam(Pleiku).

Lumberjack (hey that,s my way of letting the tension out when needed, I,ve got a cottage in the woods in Quebec... cutting wood in pieces is great to have a nice fire going on in winter) my next project there is to plant a sugar maple forest.... when i,ll be 50, i,ll make my own sirup.

Engeneering, robotics.

Photography, always in search of that One million dollars picture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Got stuck alone a few hours in the no mans land of Mauritania (Sahara desert) surrounded by anti personal mines. Things going trough my mind then was quite weird..
