ABOUT ME

I am... well, nothing I hope, because I want to not be the same each day !
But I enjoy humour: make laugh and laugh myself (I never laugh of my own jokes) is a way of life. I like to play with the langage, but unfortunately, only in French, because my English is really too bad!)

I always have a good temper, and I do what I say (that's why I try to understand what I'm saying.. :) ).
I have kill my ego a few years ago, otherwise I hate violence under all its form.
My friends say that I am really attentive to others, but I'm not sure cause I don't listen to them ;).

My defects ? I suppose that the worst depend on your own vision. "No, you don't drink alcohol just because you don't like it????" is the sentence I have often heard, and sounds like a defect. But you have to know that in Normandy, cows oblige us to drink their milk, if we desobey, we can say goodbye to the cheese... and it's beyond my forces.

I smile often and give the highest attention to the glance and smile of people I talk to.

PHILOSOPHY

How can I resume personnal philosophy, It takes me more than 2 books to explain it, and it's not finish.
My philosophy is the eudaimonism. Happyness is my goal, and happiness is the way I use to reach it. The best way is to make happy people around us, and to create and progress ourself each day.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I have one or two hands, and they seem to be happy to meet yours.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's the beginning of the beginning (but I have talked to a human being a long time ago, if I remember well ;) )

Interests

I have two passions : philosophy, and human relations. I like read... philosophy, novel etc.. and I write some books : the first one was about... philosophy, the second one as a novel, the third is a collection of poetry. And now I write the continuation of the first one.

I like a lot of style of music but unfortunately, I don't play of an instrument except with my tooth when I'm frozen.
I run (between 5 and 42 km (when I was young...)), I am not allergic to others sports, except curling !
When I have some time (more or less never), I draw portrayal and take some pictures.
I will be happy to walk in mountain again...

Music, Movies, and Books

The book which has give me the best matter to think is
with no contest "Thus Spoke Zarathustra" of Nietzsche. I don't care about his thesis, but it's a wind for thoughts.
I remember a poetry of Byron which was a perfection, but I can't remeber it's name, sorry.
I like a lot of different music styles, but as you have understood, I'm not good to remember the names !!
Movies ?
I like David Lynch because I don't understand: our mind is free with him. I like Ken Loach due to the subject of his movies. Oh, I remember a name this time ! : "Will Hunting" !... but it's not a Loach'one :). The Constant Gardener and Into the Wild are beautiful too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

"Sleep" a night in mountain, with a beautiful sky, and wild sound in the dark.
Visit the Mont-Saint-Michel during a summer soiree: amazing, there is something special there.
New-York Marathon: so many people around the road ! Incredible, such as the energy of this city: it's like something we could touch.
Speak with a baby without word and make him smile and laugth.
