Since 2015 I am travelling around without a fixed home. I am interested in organic farming and intentional community living. My other main interest (and former occupation) is mathematical graph theory.
German from my mother, French from my father, I had the chance to grow up with two different languages and cultures.
I try to travel as much as possible, discovering other places and cultures, meeting people, seeing amazing and new things, learning things.
I have previously lived in Bordeaux (France), Berlin (Germany), Barcelona (Spain), Paris (France), Johannesburg (South Africa), Clermont-Ferrand (France)...
As a next life goal, I would like to live a life closer to nature, out of the big cities and their industrial-technological-consumerist nightmare.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
