About Me

Socio-anarchist / aspiring permaculturist / holistic vegetarian cook / poet / juggler-in-training / kind-of-accordion player

I finished university last year and for now i'm hoping to spend the rest of my 20s working seasonally, traveling, learning about international solidarity work, farming, deepening my permaculture knowledge, swapping stories and learning as much as possible. the goal is to eventually build an eco-community which provides healing space for those who need it and offers workshops and skills sharing

i try to keep as open and as clear a mind as possible and i love to connect with others regardless of their political background - i offer you respect and hope to find the same!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

to meet others! to engage with the places i'm traveling to as much as possible! to exchange! to learn! to share! to find out where the fun is and to cook you some nice food! to make friends!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiking to various music festivals around Ardeche, France. I met so many beautiful people. Going into the Parisan catacombs at night. Hitchhiking in Iceland...

Teach, Learn, Share

I am always up for passing on knowledge of growing food, permaculture, baking, vegetarian cuisine, banner making, three chord ukulele, three ball juggling, political theory and revolutionary theory and history, and teaching english or french. I would love to read your tarot cards if you're interested. I can definitely teach you the card game 'wizard' if you don't know it.

I love to share food and cook for others! I've been told I make pretty great breakfasts but i'll let you decide.

I love to learn new songs on the ukulele, anything circus related, tricks and tips about permaculture and organic gardening, your thoughts on political organizing, more about foraging and wilderness skills, a recipe thats close to your heart.. any help with my spanish would be wonderful..but i'm happy to learn most things.
