Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I discovered CS more than 10 years from now... long before airbnb existed! Both ways (host and guest) are wonderful ways of traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first CS experience was in Puglia, Italy. I met great people, visited places with them, learnt about their local habits and history, went out at night with their friends and had amazing meals with their families... what else can one ask? Since then, I can't stop...

Interests

Plants, politics, ethnology, phylosophy, history, jazz, latin america, etc... And maybe a bit more passionate about food, agriculture and globalization issues.

Music, Movies, and Books

My last (great) book: Sapiens, a brief history of humankind, from Yuval Noah Harari

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent 2 months in an andean community in the Desert of Atacama, northern Chile. Humanly (poverty, humility, sense of share, hospitallity), technically (agriculture production in the middle of the driest palce in the world!) and philosophically (the rudeness and lonelyness of he desert ) wonderful experience.
