About Me

Open minded, easy going, curious -but not intrusive ;)
i'm always up to try new things, learn through experiences (but i dont eat dead animals)

I moved back to Geneva a few month ago. Before that i was studying in Montréal Canada, and Cordoba Argentina. .. I then lived and worked in differents places in switzerland,.
I always lived in big shared flat, where we often used to host people, .. not necessarly through CS, but friends of friends, or people met in differents situation.. they were always really cool experiences..

Now, we are only 2 in a flat share in the center of Geneva. Unfortunately the appartment has only 2 rooms (one each).. so we can only host people, when one of us is away -unless you're ok sleepin in the bathtub ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I could not imagine visiting a place without actually meeting and getting to know a little of some people living there, ..learn about others ways of perceiving things, share experiences

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

swimm in the lake in Geneva (Switzerland) every week for a whole year. includung freezing cold winter...
at some point it was very crazy, but it is definitly good against Hangover, ... and for immunity!

Teach, Learn, Share

i'm always curious to see and discover new things. to meet new people, share our experiences

I could teach:
* french
* how to read a music sheet
* vegi cooking
* how to make kéfir drinks
* many magic tricks with baking soda

What I Can Share with Hosts

// discussions
// discussions ... while cooking ( yes i can do 2 things at a time!)
// discussions ... while cooking together .. and drinking wine, or beer ( 3 things at a time its a miracle¨!)
.. sorry it seems, i just like discussions ;)
// going out
// gettin to see what the person likes in her/his city/place
// any help, on any project ( painting, sawing, drilling, sewing, hammering, planting, fixing bikes, making experimental cocktail..) anyting, i'll be happy to help

// swiss chocolate, .. but i kinda feel guilty and conscious about the all chocolate industry.. so maybe watch this clip before, its in French, but it has Eng subs: https://youtu.be/1MCYpsGFv_s
