Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE My first experience with CS was in December 2013 when I travelled for 3 months in Brazil. It was very good trip with kind people and amazing landscapes. CS is an amazing experience. I travel less than before because of my job so I love to host CS. It's another way to travel (at home! ;)
Music, Movies, and Books
Music : everything! Tracy Chapman, Agnès Jaoui, Ali Farka Toure, Ry cooder, Femi Kuti, Manu Chao, balkanic songs like La Caravane Passe, and espacially now brasilian and Cape Verde music. Book : I like to read travelogue like Africa Trek of family Poussin or Dans la forêt de Sibérie of Sylvain Tesson. Movie : I like watching movies but I have a really bad memory about movies!
One Amazing Thing I've Done
I hitched-hicking in Amazon for 1 000 km. I interviewed the "head of the land" in a village in Burkina Faso. He gave me a rooster in gift and accidentally I swated a baby hen. I have never been so embarrassed! I scared a baby because of my white skin. I travelled in the North-Thailand along the Mekong river by moto-cycle.
Teach, Learn, Share
I like teaching, learning, sharing about people, language, travel, cooking, sport, games, ... And I can teach you to speak French, how do you analyse a landscape, how do you milk a cow and how do you know if a wine is good or not!
What I Can Share With Hosts
At least a dinner because the French food is so good! It's my favorite moment :)
My Interests
I like having a drink with my friends, listening live music in small pubs. I like dancing, playing volley-ball, climbing and watching women's rugby match. I loved my studies about land-grabbing process in Ukraine and also water management in Burkina Faso. I'm passionate about farmer's profession.
