Overview
About Me
My personnality type is INFP-T on the Myers-Briggs test. If you don't know this test you should probably take it (16personnalities.com) it has, at least for me and the people I have shown it to, proven to be quite well structured.
INFP means my internal perception of reality mostly relies upon how my internal landscape receives and perceives the information from the world outside. I also carry the inner need, fire, to "Know myself".
I can dwell for hours deeply on my thoughts. I just love thinking, the thought world to me is quite exquisite, thinking is an underrated form of art nowadays, it has been reduced to compulsive use or practical use.
I have been diving into a lot of subjects since I was 18 : politics, philosophy, mythology, psychology, esoterism, the history of the different practices..
It led me to focus on the "Initiation" process, my soul most resonated with this and has been since. I am on a quest to realize myself, and I have been researching gems of knowledge that humans before us have transmitted throughout the ages and today still produce, and use it to benefit my development and help my fellow brothers and sisters live the best possible life.
I am very Idealistic and I want to work towards realizing my ideas, which basically run around the central theme of getting science, art and spirituality back together. Bringing light on those areas of knowledge which are the less accessible to mainstream thinking through the understanding of subtles mechanisms of consciousness and against the fallacies of materialism.
Exploring the realms of the invisible with as much depth as we have explored the physical. You might say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one ;)
I view life as a learning center, and I would like future newborn humans to live in a world where the culture is centered around truth and understanding, bathing in love for all life. We are gently and yet chaotically sailing towards evolving as an entire species. We need to be conscious of what we're doing with ourselves.
I seek to understand everything. I often realise that I'm not true to myself, and I also keep figuring out what is myself, this is a permanent challenge to deal with, which has led me to a ton of personnal development material and will be a lifelong journey. I believe that we have within us the seed of potentials that we couldn't even fathom.
I love to go to festivals (mostly trance) and meet people, share good feelings, and dance ! I feel most alive when I lose my shit on good music :P
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Meeting people and sharing moments, ideas, emotions, perspectives together is one of the greatest joy in life, if not the primary one. By discovering and interacting with other people, we discover ever more of ourselves.
I want to travel and see the world, and I want to meet people with whom I feel comfortable being myself around, and who enjoy my presence as I enjoy theirs while discovering their environment, way of life and history.
I also love discomfort and meeting people who really have opposite points of view from me, as long as it is held in a place of respect. This is one of the fastest way to grow in my opinion, to connect to so many different points of view that you get a bigger and better picture of.. yourself, life itself, humanity itself.
We're all so freaking different and yet we're plunged in a collective experience. It's wonderful :-)

Teach, Learn, Share
I love talking about my inner world so much that I need to shut up sometimes. So, that's what I can share the most, the ideas that have had the most influence on me.
I'd love to learn kind of.. everything, anything, I'm up to anything.
Oh I can teach a bit of guitar, I've played for 6 years and I really enjoy it.
I'm also good with technology, not a programmer or anything just.. grew up with it.

Good vibes, ideas that I tremendously like to talk about, and some jew's harp techno hahaha or guitar improvisation :)
