I'm kind of introverted... I prefer way much silence than chit-chats, but I can get quite talkative if subjects interest me. Fortunately I'm very interested by ecology, politics, local cultures, psychology, and some other subjects that can involve a lot of different conversations.

I can be a bit judgemental about some specific ideologies (suprematism, imperialism, stuffs like that), but not about people. I really make a strong difference between humans and what goes through their minds. My only limit before I get pissed, my n°1 rule I apply and expect other people to apply : do no harm.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I may enjoy meeting some cool people on the road of further trips. Couchsurfing can be useful in some cases, but my goal is meeting some nice local people to get a better understanding about how it is to live where they are.

Here we got a small couch, the possibility to add a hammock stand, and a real bedroom when it is not occupied by the AirBnB, so we may help you guys in return. :)

Interests

Professionnaly I've been social worker, theater / concert lightner and informatic technician. Now I'm a tree climbing instructor with no job. ^^'

I'm all into tree climbing, tree bathing etc. If we meet during one of my travels chances are very high I'll be triping for climbing some trees or meeting some other tree climbers and/or tree bathers.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love repetitive music, and I looooove guitars. So my favorite genres go from Blues to Stoner Rock. But I love some numeric stuffs also, House, Transe, Dub, Hip Hop... whatever so far it feels genuine.

I like SF movies a lot. But like music, so far it is genuine I may like it whatever the genre. If I was asked witch director films the way I see the world, i would say Terrence Malick when I'm sober, Terry Gilliam when I'm not. ^^

Now I mostly read only "tutorial" books. But I still remember all french authors I've read and some American ones I really like. David Henry Thoreau, Jack Kerouac, Henry Miller, Bret Easton Ellis... Best book in history is, IMO, "Discourse on Voluntary Servitude, or the Anti-Dictator" of La Boetie but Voltaire's "Candide" is close second.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Closing the Sainte Chapelle of Paris almost every night during a year. That was very special to be the last one there at night in this amazing building.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach tree climbing, I'm trained to do so.
I can share a lot about trees and forests, and a bit about electric guitar making.
I got so much to learn that I couldn't make a list. ^^'

What I Can Share with Hosts

Calm, kindness, weird sense of humor, interesting conversations I hope.
