About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trouver le Nord sans perdre le Sud.
Just finished Erasmus Mundus program, meaning that I spend 2 years living in Austria, Denmark, Germany and Poland. I'm not able to accept guests at this moment.

ABOUT ME

I don't mind if you just sleep over and hit the road the next day, I don't mind if you stay longer and take your time to share a good discussion, a walk, a meal or an insight.
It's just a question of time and availability (mine and yours): try to contact me, we'll see what we can do. Travelling might be intense, so having a day "off" is sometimes helpful.

I'm the the two opposites in one person: Energetic and Adventurous. Curious. Slow and Contemplative.

PHILOSOPHY

1. I believe in magic. It is quick and has a totally different logic.
2. Someone knows something I don't.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I go for couches somewhere, people are coming from trips and need some more couches here and there...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

surfing/hosting but mostly I receive guests or crash somewhere spontaneously. And so far it always tend to be nice experiences: people becoming friends is one of the most beautiful!

Interests

currently, modern and contemporary art (danse, photography, instalations, music), media arts, DIY stuff. writting.
I'm a vegetarian with a pinch of sweet tooth!

Music, Movies, and Books

Just to name some classics
in Music: Radiohead, Deftones, Noir Desir, Portishead, Zemfira, Serge Gainsbourg, Paolo Conte, Tom Waits, Nick Cave, Björk, David Lynch. Some jazz sometimes. Electronic, Trip Hop, Ambient and of course, experimental music.

Movies that first come to my mind:
Synecdoche, The Big Lebowski, Love 65.
David Lynch, Xavier Dolan..

For books it's more difficult, since my reading are more related to work or academic tasks.
As philosopher, I like L.Wittgenstein.
Lithuanian poets are allways in my bookshelf.
Trying to discover surrealists of Italy and Belgium, because of their language games.
And trying to get my hands on Asian literature (going slowly, but surely).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well, I've seen some things and some places.
I would share more in person, I guess.

Teach, Learn, Share

there's still left much to do...
I'd love to learn Italian.
Create a light and sound installation!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like cooking and long conversations. Walks, rides. Observe different horizons.
