CURRENT MISSION

Improving and living free

ABOUT ME

After having spent last years travelling and moving out, eather for work or studies, now I try to stop myself and building something more full of sens and still be free. I currently follow an adult class about organic and biodynamic agriculture in order to build your own farm. For the moment, I do an internship for 8 months in an organic farm which raise dairy cows, and we make cheese with their milk. Next year I'll do an internship not with animals but with vegetables. After I will be more able to choose in which kind of farm I would like to work. This is a really good class, I'm really lucky to follow it. So far I didn't know a lot about agriculture. It's for me a good chance to learn and to be well prepared.

This new training keeps me busy a lot ! But I usually spend most of my time with my friends and I'm always trying to meet new people. It oftenly makes me cross several miles or even countries to see them.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I truly think that anyone has awesome things to share. During my travels, I've met only people who completly confirmed that. I owe so much hospitality.

I used CS a lot while I visited Quebec and while I crossed USA by hitch hiking. People were so welcoming there !
After, I received a bit in Strabourg, I received so many requests.
Then, couchsurfers helped me when I moved out in Alps and also in Switzerland. I would love to host again, but I live in non attractive places now.

Interests

I'm also a lot curious, and I always start new hobbies. Therefore, I do a lot of things, but nothing really well... I'm learning violin for a while, I did play quite a lot of guitare. I used to be completely fond of music and spent most of my time and money in concert.
I also knitt a lot. I just started painting (still not a real success). I make my own soap and others natural cares. I'm interested in medicin herbs, plants knowledge.
I do sport a bit as well, I love climbing ! But my flat county doesn't help improving. My favourite is hiking ! I already crossed Pyrénnées mountains last summer and did a lot of natural parks in America, I lived in Alps a while and also visited some nice places. Mountains are wonderfull !
Obviously, one of my main concern is environment. I try to do my best and keep informed.
