About Me

I'd say I'm a usually calm person, and up to almost everything. Depending of the people I'm with, I can go outside to do sports (rock climbing or surfing), hillwalking or just hiking. I also can be lazy and stay at home watching films and playing video games. But if you're up to, I do like drinking and partying (and dancing but unfortunately it kinda looks like an epileptic seizure).
I just let the opportunities coming to me, and grab them. All of them. This makes me discovering new stuffs all the time, meeting new people (most of the time they become good friends) and travelling. Still not sure it's the best way of living but I like it for now.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just like having people around at my place, to share a meal, talk, and listening music.

Interests

Even if I do a lot of activities, especially rock climbing, my centres of interest are more the nerdy type. I'm absolutely mad about cinema, and I stupidely fill my brain with a lot of useless data as directors, actors and writters' name, releasing dates and durations of movies. My other obsession is the music, I'm trying to expend my musical culture as much as possible and always open to discover anything new. And of course, even if I do play less and less, I love video games, especially the solo ones, I mainly play for the stories, not for the challenge or competition.

Music, Movies, and Books

Bands I'm mad about : Mogwai, Portishead, Massive Attack, Ratatat, EZ3kiel, Archive, Sigur Ros

There are too many movies I love but I'll try to take my very favorites : The Cornetto trilogy (Shaun of the dead - Hot Fuzz - The world's end), Mr Nobody, Scott Pilgrim VS The World, Fight Club, The Darjeeling Limited and I'm probably forgetting loads of them.

My favorite book is "La horde du Contrevent" by Alain Damasio, if you can read french, you HAVE to read this one, it's absolutely brilliant. Metro 2033, Fight Club (again !), The Discworld, H2G2, The Dice Man and every Neil Gaiman's book (Coraline, Neverwhere, Stardust, Smoke and Mirrors, Good Omens, ...) are totally my stuff. I also like comics, I'm in love with Bryan O'Malley's work (Lost at Sea, Scott Pilgrim, Seconds) and with Calvin and Hobbes. I'll also never recommand enough Neil Gaiman's Sandman and The Umbrella Academy.

I'm not done at all but I think it's enough for now...
