Hi I'm Thomas, a french guy currently living in Cambridge, UK. I've been on couchsurfing for a while, but I never really made the experience yet. I'd like to give it a shot!

CURRENT MISSION

Getting the best there is in myself by traveling the world, meeting inspiring people, participating to great projects...

ABOUT ME

I love traveling, learning, making things, discovering new places and new people. During daytime I am a software engineer, evenings and early morning I currently spend a unreasonable amount of time rowing, and when there is time left, I read, and learn new things from psychology and personal development to computer sciences, technology and music.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Is there a more exciting and genuine way of discovering the world other than by getting to know the locals of the places you land in? Dig the top notch tips where they are and bring back memories no photo can describe is my traveling philosophy :)

Interests

Practicing sports, rowing, eastern martial arts, soccer, downhill skiing, cross-country skiing, running, hiking the wild.
I have a long-time passion for music and sound which I studied and experimented with since my early years. Life choices made it more difficult to practice this passion recently but the flame is still lit up and waits for its awakening. I also share with this a passion for computer programming and making cool software.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Martian by Andy Weir
Breaking bad by Vince Gilligan
Most movies of David Fincher (Fight Club, The Social Network), Christopher Nolan, the strange and amazing universes of Terry Gilliam and Wes Anderson.
Music... this one is a bit complicated as I pretty much enjoy any kind of music as long as it's "good" :) But a glimpse of my tastes and inspirations are Dream Theater, Laurent Garnier, Trent reznor, Philip glass, dust all that with a bunch of classical music and taste and adjust seasoning before serving.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trip to Thailand with childhood friends, meeting incredibly kind people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have some remaining rudiments of piano playing, maybe I could help with that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good mood, good times, good conversation :)
Very little of bad... as it is not much to my taste.
