About Me

I travelled much (not enough if you ask me), made memorable encounters and received much from all the generous people on my way... until I've had to stop. I settled in a cosy little paradise by the river. I work every other week, renovate an old stonned house and try to grow a vegetable garden on my rare spare time.
There are now 4 confortible bedrooms and sometimes somewhat to eat in the vegetable garden. I can thus return the generous favors that were made to me on couchsurfing and anywhere along my journeys.

J'ai bien voyagé, fais de belles rencontres, reçu beaucoup des gens sur ma route. Puis j'ai dû interrompre mes voyages. Je me suis installé dans un petit coin de paradis in ze medoc. Je travaille une semaine sur deux et retape une vieille maison en pierre et m'occupe du potager à mes heures libres.
Il y a maintenant 4 chambres confortables et parfois de quoi manger dans le jardin. Je peux donc retourner dignement les faveurs qui m'ont étées faites via couchsurfing ou spontanément sur ma route et accueillir qui le souhaite.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

En voyage, je me suis parfois servi de couch surfing. Moins que je ne l'imaginais car j'ai souvent voyagé dans des regions oú l'accueil est une traditions. A moins que ce soit partout? Ou juste moi qui attire la générosité ? Le fait est qu'on m'a souvent invité spontanément lors de simples rencontres, mais j'ai toujours trouvé que CS était un superbe emplois d'internet.

As a traveler, I used couchsurfing on few occasions. Less than I expected in fact as I traveled in regions where hosting a foreigner is like a tradition. I was very often spontaneously invited home by the people I met with here and there. But I always thought CS was a splendid opportunity to meet with people.

As a matter of fact I used it more often to organise an activity like climb up a volcano, or improvise olympique games with people, travelers or hosts, in cities where I didn't plan to stay overnight. Thoses memories I'll keep for ever!

Today I settled in I a sweet little paradise lost by a large estuary. I live alone in a big house renewing it as I fin spare time. I started with my room, I now have four available and am ready to host guests myself after enjoying the generosity of others. What goes around comes around.

The house being by a large estuary, depending on the meteorological situations there are risks to experience water floods. I will accept guests only if I consider the situation safe, this might be a reason why I postpone a request or take time to evaluate the situation before to answer.

Tout! Ou presque. Les gens, la cuisine, la musique, le cinema, la NATURE! Tant de choses à deciuvrir en ce monde. Ça parait evident en voyage mais ça se passe aussi à la maison.

All! Food, Music, Movies, people, philosophy, history, nature, COOKING. There are so many things to explore in this world. On a travel, all that becomes obvious, but you ça aswell expérience it at home. I love it

Music, Movies, and Books

Livres preferes: tortilla flat et cantikene en gelée
Cinema: j'aime surtout la lumière au cinéma mais j'aime aussi quand le cinéma nous permet de voir ce qui n'existe pas ou simplement ce que l'on ne peut souvent pas voir.
Musique: j'aime à peut près tout tant que c'est bon et bien fait, donne envie de danser ou simplement colle à l'humeur du moment.

Books: tortilla Flat and Cantilène en gelée are probably the best boks İ ever could read
Cinema :
I love the light, and atmosphere more than the plot in a movie, but I also love movies with strange creatures and unrealistic features.
Music:
Any! as long as it's good, gives a dance fever or just sticks to the mood.
