About Me

ABOUT ME

Hello ;-)

I like discovering new things, learning stuffs about stuffs, meeting new people, talking about everything with any kind of personality, practicing various activities, reaching beautiful and interesting places in the world as most of us in the couchsurfing community i guess!

I particularly love climbing, listening to brazilian music, week trek in autonomy, taking pictures of insect fights, playing football, I love my cat too! I love to read, Zweig is my favourite author but there are many others. I am very curious.

Sometimes, I share a lot with the Dude in the Big Lebowski movie, which means "take it easy" would be a good summary of my way of thinking ;-). Sometimes, I think more like this : " the only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones that never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn " (On the Road, Kerouac)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The same reason as most of the couchsurfers I guess - enjoying life, travelling and being part of a beautiful vision and collective adventure !

Interests

Thoreau, animal behavior, world cinema, madness, mountain, Pascal, Football, climbing, alpinism ! South Park, how to cook a perfect ratatouille ? Why so big universe ? How does work a transistor ? etc etc etc

Music, Movies, and Books

I am able to quote almost any sentence of The Big Lebowski, Gladiator, Into the Wild and few other wonderful movies, which makes my friends a bit tired as they hear me quoting movies all the time ^^. Hopefully my best friend is in the same case so we can discuss in Gladiator dialect and stay happy together.

I'am in love with Brazilian music. The most beautiful music pieces I've found in my life were brazilian. It is the best remedy I know for bad mood. Novos Baianos, Jorge Ben, Os Mutantes, Tom Zé, Cone crew diretoria, Tribalistas, Marcelo D2, ans many others
