Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started, so we will see

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Not through CS2, but I have spent a lot off time on couches in many different countries. Often with people I met on the streets as a student. Now more with people I meet through my job or other contacts.
Since I was a student, there was always at least one extra matrass in my room, later couches in my house that I always shared with a roommate. One night, we had 26 europeans sleeping in between the garden and the attick!!

Interests

Nature, travel, local habits and foods. I can get interested in most things an other person is excited about.

  • wildlife
  • dining
  • gardening
  • traveling
  • teaching

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was so lucky to spent a couple off days with an Amish Family.
I am amazed that, after the luck to have seen so many places, I still can enjoy small moments of life.

Teach, Learn, Share

In my rehabcentre, I started with European Voluntary service, so young people can already come to the centre to learn about wildlife rehabilitation and oiled wildlife.
