About Me

Environmentally aware, adventurous, life loving, vegetarian bloke.
I moved back to the countryside in order to have space for a garden and I love cooking new things with fresh vegetables from the garden :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Take life day by day
Not easy, but I'm working on it

I'm trying to find time for my various projects, while working full time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, right now I'm mostly participating as a host !
Don't hesitate to come and knock ;-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Actually not a lot 'official' CouchSurfing experiences, but I often ended up sleeping at freshly met people's place, and also hosted people the same way ;-)

Interests

A lot of things, actually.
I'd say, in general, just anything new :-)
And to be more specific... travels, politics, ecology & ecopsychology, computers, music, beekeeping, fermentation and a lot more !

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many things to list in detail.
But Jazz & Electro and any kind of interesting book are a big part of it :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Crossing the border from Jordan to Israel, after having spent more than a month in Turkey, Syria, Libanon and Jordan...
And running on a beach in Côte d'Ivoire with 20+ local kids having fun <3

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd say it depends on the person in front of me, but basically, I'd be happy to share my computer knowledge (as an IT engineer). Otherwise, I'm getting into botanic, so I would definitely love to share experiences and knowledge on this topic.
Of course, if I can teach you some french or swiss-german, feel free to ask !

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook so I'd be happy to prepare a nice meal for a nice host :-)
