CURRENT MISSION

Pursue happiness, learn about languages, live in different countries, become good at what I do, figure out how to have a positive impact in this world.

ABOUT ME

A messy list of what makes what I am :
- I believe I'm an open minded person.
- I am quite empathetic.
- I love to share, especially food.
- I am curious, loving to learn about everything, considering new/different ideas as potentially true or enriching.
- I am a calm person, which hides a slight anxious tendency. Working on it.
- I am fascinated and inspired by people's positivity, creativity and dynamism.
- I love art in all forms.
- I would also call myself an outraged person, but I don't exactly know how to make the world fairer.
- I kinda struggle organising, I am more spontaneous.
- I rather value profound relationships over the size of my network.
- My astro sign is cancer, which means : I enjoy being in the water + all of the above.

PHILOSOPHY

When I was in first year, at university, my literarture teacher read out loud the following verses. It's been echoeing in my heart ever since :

No man is an island entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;
if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as well as any manner of thy friends or of thine
own were;
any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
(John Donne)

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been less involved during the last couple of months because I didn't have a place of my own. I've been hosting a few couchsurfers but I have mostly been hosted. Couchsurfing is a landmark to me. Whenever I go to foreign place, I know I won't be alone, because Couchsurfing is a global community of people who share the same desire to meet sisters and brothers from other lands.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met friends, like proper. People I still hold dear to this date. Ever since I joined, I have been a loyal advertiser of Couchsurfing.

Интересы

Nature. I was born and raised in the countryside and came to realise I need nature to feel balanced in my life. I like space, heights, calm.

I love art in general : singing, painting, writing, playing the piano, discovering music, taking photos, watching plays or films, going to museums, collecting hand craft jewelry and pottery etc.

Also, I am Jack in the phrase: "Jack of all trades, master of none". I enjoy trying new things, having different activities but at the same time, I can't excel in any of them. I wish to learn to focus a bit more.

Музыка, кино и книги

Music:
I can find beauty and enthrallment in any style, but I mostly listen to soul, rap, jazz and folk music from all parts of the world. My favourite singer is Nai Palm.

Films:
I enjoy films that shake me emotionnally. It can be any genre : scifi, drama, comedy, documentary...

Books:
I am a book collector more than a bookworm. I love these objects but I have to admit I struggle finishing them. True problem here, again learning to focus. Currently reading Alexandra David Neel.
