About Me
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Surfed a lot, hosted a few times, each time an inspiring experience.
Once hosted 7 couchsurfers at the same time in my house in Ecuador
Interests
I love my field, at the crossroads of agriculture, ecology and social sciences.
Concerning music: Practicing blues guitar recently
Whenever I find time for it, I love to do photography. My last project was about people's reaction, while encountring artists copying paintings, at the Louvre museum, Paris.
I love mountains, and usually, I'm on a hike in french alps every other week.
