Hello dear couchsurfers,
I'm Elise, 32 years old and I come from Burgundy, France.
I care for nature, wildlife, ecology and animals. I'm living vegan and I love cooking and share what I do ;) That's one of my passion.
I made a double Bachelor (french german) in Communication and european culture studies. I lived 3 years in Germany. I speak French, German and English fluently and I'm learning now the fifth most popular language in the world : arabic (it's getting better !)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to meet people and share with them

Interests

I do a lot of trainings, espiecially acrobatic and handstand.
I'm interested in building a culture of peace, and I think couchsurfing can be a way to bring people closer and get personal knowlede about solidarity, trust, responsability, good sense, humility...

I love music and play the trumpet and the guitar ! I also like to volunteer in music and circus festivals in france.
I am right now working in a Montessori school, because I am looking for new pedagogical methods which could bring more understanding and peace among people. I think that education is the key to face the complexity of the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I did a bike tour with a friend. We went from Lyon, France, to Barcelona, Spain by bike, just with a tent, without knowing where and how to sleep. That is for me the best way to travel and I would like to do that 10000 times again ! The most amazing was to smell hear and see all the beautiful things of the nature, lavender, Apple, grass, mud, animals, sea...

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach French and German.
What I can share too is my passion for acrobatic. I can try to teach how we do an Hanstand for example :)
I also did a Workshop for Non-Violent Communication and would be able to transmit these important elements.

What I Can Share with Hosts

What I would like to share is my engagement for the environment and the animals, and my way to an alternative Eating, which is plant-based.
We can also drink a good bottle of wine, because my parents are winegrower in Burgundy, France.
