I was raised and educated in Brittany, France. After I graduate, I spent 10 years in Catalonia working as an engineer. Then I realized I wanted a meaningful occupation, and decided to go back to Brittany, become a farmer and grow vegetables.
What I like most is spending good times with nice people, having a beer and hanging around.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I had heard about couch surfing for a long time, and then I was hosted by Sophie in Granville thanks to The Delighted Caravane. We spent a really good time, and the least I can do is register to send a good comment !
Also during 2015 I may be travelling around France and need new hostages !!

Interests

I am interested in vegetables growing, soil life, running a farm.
Eating good is important, so I appreciate good products and good cooking.
I love beer and brew some with friends.
Music is important to me. I have a great number of CDs and mp3 and I'm always happy to discover new sounds. I also play the guitar witth a band. I have other instruments I don't really know how to play but I like to make them live !
Also I am interested in the on going change in people's mind, taking care of the environment, going local in the economic field, and finding new ways of living great all together.
