Bonjour,
I’m Gabi from the south France (Marseilles).
I have to describe myself in english. I tried to do my best, but I know there are few (or a lot. I hope no) mistakes.
I don’t know people around me who speak a fluent english, but I’m sure it will be easy for you.
Can you help me to have a good introduction. Here my text :
CURRENT MISSION
To forget time
OCCUPATION
Dreamer
ALL ABOUT YOU
The human nature is elusive. Do I have to describe my desires or my reason, because few of my desires are reasonable… Do I have to try to draw my real nature or the woman I am with her history and surroundings .
I grew up and stayed to this day in the same region : la Provence. Even if I would have liked to move and to do big travels during my childhood, my imagination is all the bigger. I aspire to an endless freedom, complete independence.
When I was a child, I wanted to become an astronaut, then apple merchant, painter, politician, writer. In 2009, I’m studying medicine in Marseilles. I divide my time among the hospital, courses, student job ; books, movies, music ; flamenco, windsurf and climbing ; parties with friends, my family and trips.
In June I’m going to south America for 3 months. Until then I would like to go in Morocco and Quebec, and after then to visit my sister in Shanghai.
HOW I PARTICIPATE
To begin communicate my optimism and big smile, the continuation build in a group .
EXPERIENCE
I have hosted, been hosted and met some of you.
Writing mails, sharing good ideas, meeting someone somewhere in this world, drinking and speaking together, having new friends, helping travelers who want to see the south France. I’m inpatient for all of that.
INTERESTS
To feel music vibes when I’m lying down
To wake me up with sun ray warming up my skin
The Nature : see, swimming, windsurf, mountain, skiing, climbing (one day, Everest.)
The dynamism of big cities, keep the belief of be able to change the world into one’s view
To watch a good movie when I’m tired, this brings me new dreams and new thoughts
Some moments of deep melancholic loneliness
Talk just for the sake of talking (I’m a chatterbox. no.), use comic situations
Trust people, feel considered and loved
PERSONAL PHILOSOPHY
I love the life. We must protected it and express it by all means : art, thought, social interaction.
A happy life doesn’t worry about time going
To live on love and fresh air, but my conscience forced me to be actor on this earth : to be constantly in a total opposition. Its balance is the happiness, its resolution the death.
PEOPLE I ENJOY
People ready to share and to let oneself discover,
Who aren’t scared of the difference, the unknown, their deep imaginary and the creativity,
Someone who considered me as a whole person without judge my direct action.
People who will help me to build my mind full of questions or to the contrary who will make me them forgotten
TEACH, LEARN, SHARE
A bit of dance (ballet, flamenco, tango, salsa)
To sing in a round French songs
Some advices for having a lift with hitch-hiking for long distances
Cooking really easy : crepes and carbonara pasta
AMAZING THING DONE / SEEN
Take part in an open heart surgery (successful.) during 8 hours.
YOUR OPINION PLEASE .
Wonderful : at the time of couchsurfing like hitch-hiking, I have a request, but my weakness becomes a strength when we trust each other without expecting anything in return except for a bit of humanity.
COUCH
A blue sofa that can be converted into a bed in the living room.
I am living in front of the medical school with a friend (girl) who is studying medicine like me.
My home is 20 minutes by foot from the center town, but 5 minutes from the underground.
No pets.
We don’t smoke, but you can smoke on the balcony.
There are supermarkets and shops in the quarter.
Few days are ok. Fast every time.
Thank you very much to spend time with me.
Gabi

Well written. Gabi, I made a few changes mostly for clarity. I took some liberties with your text. I don’t know what you meant by singing in a round so I used chorus but you can change it to group or band.
Answering earns you 2 points.
