Overview
About Me
Searching for good, beauty and truth. There may be ambushs on the road, but music an poetry are my shield as well as my weapons. Travelling is a vocation. Now a few words in french:
J'ai vu le jour la nuit de Samain
En l'année mil-neuf-cent nonante-et-un,
Et la naissance me fit citoyen
Du pays noir que la Sambre dessine.
À qui m'enjoint avec civilité
De dire en mots brefs mon art et ma vie,
Lui chanterai ce discours que n'habille
Ni le mensonge ni la vanité :
Mon art ne vaut pas mieux que le silence
Et a pour seul objet de lui sembler;
Ma pauvre vie est de luxe comblée
Car la pain m'est la suprême opulence.
Dire plus serait orgueil ou folie -
Mais fol et orgueilleux je dis encor
Que les beaux vers et les justes accords
Ont saisi mon néant pour l'anoblir!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
To welcome and to be welcome, to help and be helped. To meet good people!

Well I could teach you basis of musical pratice in general, and guitar in particular. If you are already guitarist, I can show you a interesting tuning that I created, and some nice ways to use it.
