About Me

Too Sick (lyme disease) to host but maybe I can show you around my town (if I am in good shape)

1) curious of many things, fascinated by the diversity of human experiences
one thing that could define me is "the more you seem different from me, from what I know, the more I wish to understand you".
en français "aller voir ailleurs si j'y suis"

2) like to have fun , humor, creativity

3) open mindedness , tolerance, are key values to me

4) full of flaws like many human beings

5) photo not up to date : add to it glasses + a scarf

- sensitive to art, beauty
- curious of science, understand how things work
- have lyme disease since 7 years, impacts me a lot but might be invisible to you
- hope that soon I'll be healthy enough so that I'll be able to travel again , especially in sustainable communities, ecovillages, to make report about them (use to be the beginning of a job before I got sick)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couchsurfing because I like meeting new people and I plan to travel this autumn/winter in Spain. And before that maybe in switzerland and italy. I hope to be able in the following year to be able to host people but right now my current flat is not adapted to that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have lyme disease and this is really "amazing" (humor). The way the French state is dealing with this situation make it really a special adventure, that's really "amazing" (humor -black)
I have done cryotherapy to try to get better.
I have almost done illegal things to get better.
I have spent thousands of dollars for my health.

I have lived for a couple of months with the Amish people... and loved most of it. (although I do not agree with them on everything)
I have lived one year in a big/functional intentional community in France.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share with you my interest for intentional communities -ecovillages- I visited, I can explain you how they function, how it was to live there, and I have many pictures . And share ressources and information about what are the good tips to create one... If you wish to visit some communities you can check www.ic.org; or in France, get a magazine called "Passerelle eco".
The one close by my house: http://www.arche-de-st-antoine.com/

I can share about nutrition/health as I have studied this to get better.

I can share about "how to deal with a disable person" , as I have experience in this (blind, autists friends, myself -please: don't be afraid!- )

What I Can Share with Hosts

Walking around ... talking, maybe going to help to the intentional community that I live close by. Going out with me to see my friends. If you are lucky, getting around a fire with my friends, and sing, speak, eat.
