Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love travelling and learning about other cultures and other visions of life, but the only way to truly discover a country and imbibe its culture is through the people living there. If you are just going sightseiing you are missing the point ...

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to all styles of music from rap and metal to piano and classics depending on my mood - at the moment I am quite enjoying Ed Sheeran, Arcadefire, Ludovico Einaudi

I am already reading a lot for my work, so reading is rare: I do enjoy Laurent Gounelle at the moment combining fiction and scientific concepts about happiness.

All kinds of movies except horror movies. I do like scandinavian movies like the Bridge (the original version).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
