Doing my PhD in Social Anthropology focusing on China.
Currently on fieldwork in China and Taiwan.
Interests in international development, ethics, animal-human relations amongst others.

I'm never happier when I'm on the move, meeting new people, getting through challenging situations. Life was not meant to be lived in one place.

I love dogs. If you have a dog I may never want to leave.

I have a great interest in the meaning of life and am always keen to hear other people's philosophies and ideas. Although I lost my idealism a long time ago.
And I constantly change my opinions and ideas so this will all be wrong by the time u read it..

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short. Don't take things so seriously. Especially yourself.

Try to find the middle way.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

When I can’t host I organise events wherever I am based.
I go to the couchsurfing meetings and a lot of my friends are couchsurfers.
It's sort of a life philosophy for me - we should share everything we have.

Centres d'intérêt

I'm interested in travelling and in learning new ways of thinking about life. I enjoy experiencing different peoples' perspectives. I'm interested in alternative living, living in communities and more away from society. I think people can really learn from each other and from putting themselves in new situations to learn about themselves. I'm trying to learn as much as I can about world religions.
I also love music and like to party!

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Waking life. Lost in translation I can watch a million times.
I read Classics, travel writing, and all the random spirituality books I can get my hands on..
I like every type of music except for pop. I especially like Electro for parties ;)
