ABOUT ME

Let's listen to them in the references/friends comments.. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy, take the most of the life at the location where you are, never complain about what you don't have (secret of happyness!), optimistic and positive, open-minded, no regrets, always discover...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I joined CS 16y ago, was quite crowded with CSers at home, and met only great people, so nice experience :)
I had to stop to host for a while, traveled too much
When you have been leaving abroad, and sometimes in difficult countries for so many years, hospitality and mutual aid has become completely natural :)

Love diving, wind surfing, kite surfing, snowboarding, riding motobikes and horses - even camels ;), animals (and my little dog :), saling, going to concerts/opera, partying, dancing salsa and others, playing rugby, volley ball, guitar...

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very currious about life, and eager to discover and learn. So I can teach/share plenty of interesting things, fruit of my life and travels.
And I have a very interesting job, impacting everybody, but which is quite a mistery for most of the people, so just ask and you will be flooded with explanations :)
