Born nearby dormant volcanoes in Auvergne (France), I am calm, creative, open-minded, helpful, empathic. I will let you make your own judgement for the rest !

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

In the first place, I could appear to be shy, whereas I am only sensitive, and aware of whats happenning around me.

But then, I find it more than enriching, and interesting to go beyond appearances, and see what it's really about.
How people live, how feelings are represented in each cultures, what can be shared (confidence, trust, friendship, etc.).

Travelling is about Learning, and I like to go in complete immersion instead of walking past sceneries. I feel complete exchanging with others about life, about taking a walk through life.

兴趣

I am fond of travelling, of music of many kinds (jazz, blues, punk,us rap,reggae,classical music etc.).

In my spare time, I go and meet some friends in bars/cafes, go to concerts, try to discover the cultural aspects of things. I go dancing a lot in practicas and milongas (tango dance). I read quite a lot, love to go for walks to breath and take my time. I like to go and watch movies, play video games, swim, go cycling...

I am very curious about life and am willing to try many things!

教，学，和分享

I wish I could improve in playing the harmonica, and speaking russian. I would like to get back to learning to play the piano : I have stopped some years ago after 4 years playing.

I am willing to learn about any theory about earth, any visions of living, spiritual lessons, and to share many different expériences with others.

I can hardly find things to teach, as I still know few things about life..., but I can share all I know about languages, french and English, and maybe some tango dance paces ! I can share what I know about French gastronomy as well.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I would love to share time with my hosts : visiting their favorites places, cooking with/for them, sharing memories about favorites subjects/trips, dreams and ways of thinking, poetry, sport time, movies ...
