About Me

Soon leaving for Iceland, so if you're a native and you fancy talk about your country (and receive a free beer) let me know :)

CURRENT MISSION

Know new people, get inspired, have fun, learn new things and see the world.

ABOUT ME

Hey!
I'm an easy going guy who loves to write, photography, literature, sports and music in general (one of my dream jobs would be music journalist, but then I decided to take a phd in engineering :( ). I do play guitar also and try to sing, but i'm way far to be good: I just like it.
Actually I live in Lausanne, so it would be funny to meet new people here for a coffee (ok, maybe better for a chocolate!) or a drink. It would be harder to me to host people now, but I'm always open to show you a bit the city.

PHILOSOPHY

Time is a old bald cheater.
Life is too important to be left to chance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met some ppl in India and they were all super super kind! I just hope to give that good karma back :) Also I prefer to meet local people when I travel, I had amazing experiences so far and travelling alone that's the best way to give and gain something while being in a new country.

Interests

Music, photography, poetries, novels, computers, exchange recipes, science, animation movies (I'm in love with Studio Ghibli)..

Music, Movies, and Books

Mmmh, this would be quite long :)
Music: I'm really into folk music right now (Lumineers, Of monsters and men, Mumford&Sons, Iron&Wine, Dan Mangan.. it is REALLY a long list!), but I also love indie/alternative rock (Arctic Monkeys, Black Keys, Interpol, Bowie..)
Movies: any kind of psychological movie, animation, musical, horror..
Books: all, I'm a bit of bookworm. Actually I read a lot Murakami, J.Coe, S.Reynold.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Camping in the middle of the desert in India and jamming with an ukulele in front of a fire camp. Sheer happiness!
Wildcamping in Lochness, wake up and find the most stunning sunrise of my life.
Trekking 8days alone in Scotland for the first time with a bloody heavy backpack (totally worth it, I survived).

What I Can Share with Hosts

I use to always carry swiss chocolate with me, so be prepared! Also I like cooking and playing guitar, so we could set up a nice alternative evening :) I've many stories about my travels and pictures in case you fancy discuss them.
