About Me

CURRENT MISSION

settling in Nantes

ABOUT ME

Grew up and lived in France until july 2007, I experimented the swedish way of life for 2 years in Stockholm and Gothenburg until I went back to France for getting a job.

I must say I feel connected both to France and Sweden, and do not feel any limitation when it comes to travel (except when snowing damnit!).

The conclusion right now is I would like to feel everywhere at the same time, which is unfortunately not compatible with human abilities :-(

I like discussing and coming up with truth, which is my main activity when surfing websites. I often consider the Internet as the new main freedom people can have in this overcontrolled world! Long life to Couch Surfing!

PHILOSOPHY

Escaping from basic natural human reactions, understanding and tolerating each other instead of rejecting and killing every thing

Interests

Like going out in Nantes, a very good place for evenings and nights. Having beer with my friends.

The main sport i love is Handball, and try to follow as much as possible international tournaments and both Nantes and Cherbourg (where i started) teams. So if you want see HBC Nantes playing, you are welcome to follow me ;-)

I really enjoy nice foods and drinks, I am a real wine, cheese, specialities enthusiastic!
Food is sure to be the first thing which I have the most interest when I travel.

Since March 2010 I fulfilled one of my strongest dream when buying my first motorbike. I got my license in 2005, a long time ago, so you can imagine how it feels!
I have two helmets, so if you feel like having a ride with me, I can show you how beatiful are the coast and the countryside (there is a huge lake in the south!).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music, almost everything. I started with english pop rock with the U2 Irish band. It is actually all the English rock music i like the most , Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd, some actual like Coldplay, The Verve, Oasis, Arctic Monkeys, The Killers and some more others...

Some movie sound tracks I love: Trainspotting with Underworld (more Trance), blur with sing... awesome songs!

Teach, Learn, Share

Good opportunity for Swedish people who want to learn some French.
Of course if you want to know some French words I can do that :-)
