About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover new horizons, outer and inner.

ABOUT ME

I love walking and discovering what life has to offer with every new step. I've been a few places but what I mostly look for when I travel is to meet people and try to share our visions of this fantastic world we all live in. I enjoy both city life and nature, especially mountains, without which I might be miserable. I like hiking, meditating, laughing, reading, talking, writing, cycling, swimming, cooking, eating, sharing, and so many other ..ings... I am vegetarian but since I live in Sète sometimes cook fish for friends who really must have it!

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoying life in every moment without taking it too seriously

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just now coming back to the CS world. I had a glimpse of it a few years back and then was busy renovating a home so had no time to travel, and no place to host... Seems to me like a great idea/reality. I'd like to share what I know (and am) and learn from others as well.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being in a storm with thunder and lightning all around, literally a few hundreds meters away from the summit of Mount Bego (home to the god of Thunder since quite some time it seems) in the "Vallée des Merveilles", close to the French-Italian border... + many others of course but that one just came to my mind.

Teach, Learn, Share
