"Never stop exploring".

I enjoy small pleasures of life : the smell of a warm croissant, having good meal with friends, having a fit of the giggles, I love the sound of waves and the smell of iodine, the wind, meeting new people, reading in the sun, riding a bike in the woods, partying until dawn ...
So many good times which make life pleasant and surprising. I don't want me to get into a rut. I try to make my daily life more attractive everyday changing small details which make the difference.

My philosophy : " So many people live within unhappy circumstances and yet will not take the initiative to change their situation because they are conditioned to a life of security, conformity, and conservatism, all of which may appear to give one peace of mind, but in reality nothing is more dangerous to the adventurous spirit within a man than a secure future. The very basic core of a living spirit is his passion for adventure. The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greather joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun."

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Hosting, surfing and participating to CS events in my own town or anywhere i'm travelling to.

I started hosted when I was 18 with my flatmate Joffrey (http://www.couchsurfing.org/people/jeylem/). I first hosted a lot before been hosted. I mostly surfed in Croatia and Australia. When I was travelling, I had my best memories with people I met via couchsurfing, especially the travel mates I found thanks to CS in forums.

Interessen

I'm a book publisher, so guess what ?... I love books, especially photography books.
I wish I travelled all the time. If I cannot leave France, I travel through books and movies. As often as I can I go to the beach (for surfing or sailing) or to the mountain (rafting, canyoning, climbing, hiking...).

I don't espacially love a kind of music. Hip hop, Jazz, Salsa, Electro... : music I love depends on the mood ! Best concert i've ever been : Rodrigo & Gabriela.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

My road trip around Austalia

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I'd love to learn arabic language, cook world food, play guitar & kitesurfing... I also would like to learn how to cook GOOD american pancakes, because here in France, we just know how to cook "crêpes"...
I'm quite fond of making tarts and cakes =) I can learn you some secret receipes of mine ;) or help you to improve your french.
