CURRENT MISSION

Meet you.

ABOUT ME

I love the sea.
And, me too, I love chocolate.
Les rencontres doivent garder leur part de mystère ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, be happy
Si c'est possible, c'est fait. Si c'est impossible, ça se fera.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My door is always open.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Each time it was the nice meetings, although in fact I made even better meetings via Warmshower (CS for bike).

Interests

A big part of me is clearly nomad. I spent 10 years on sailing boats and 5 years in the Sahara . I think I 'm going to love the tundra one of these days :-)

Music, Movies, and Books

It moves all the time, right now it is in disorder Céu, Dikanda, Courtney Barnett, Sia, Led Zeppelin, the Cat Empire. If I had to go (back) in a desert island I think this is Miles Davis in his Tokyo period that would accompany me, because its splendid complexity is never exhausted.

My favorite books: Le Rouge et le Noir (Stendhal) for music to all sentences, Les Immémoriaux (Ségalen) for its exotic poetry, Les Particules Elémentaires (Houellebecq) for its blackness, 1984 (Orwell) for everything, Les Misérables ( Hugo) for its evocative power, 100 Ans de Solitude (Garcia Marquez) for its final vertigo, l'Assomoir (Zola) for its rightness and for this middle scene of the meal at the washerwoman ... I love classicals, don't I ? And Les Fleurs du Mal (Charles Baudelaire), would probably accompanied Miles Davis on the deserted island.

Movies : Latcho Drom, Flamenco Flamenco, 2001, A Space Odyssey, Breaking the Waves, Merci Patron, Into the Wild ... actually I'm not a big movie buff and I easily forget the films I see

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my best travel memories is spending 10 days in the Chagos islands, islands accessible only by boat, in the middle of the Indian Ocean, after a year at sea.
