Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING Happy to meet people coming to Grenoble and maybe offer couch ... COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE slept in Russian airports, under pine trees of Cote d'Azur, haunted houses in Indonesia, log cabins under midnight sun, waking up is always a new day and a reason to celebrate ... wherever!
Music, Movies, and Books
Eclectic taste in music, ranging from Irish folk, to classic rock, salsa, chanson francaise and Gregorian chant Movies, a few I particularly love are El Secreto de sus Ojos, La Belle Verte, Monsoon Wedding Recent books enjoyed include La Sombra del Viento by Carlos Ruiz Zafon, Slow by Carl Honore, and J avoue que j ai vecu by Pablo Neruda
One Amazing Thing I've Done
10k night run in Quito, paragliding on the Ecuadorian coast, watching whales and dolphins out at sea, ziplining in the cloud forest, gold panning in Lapland ...
Teach, Learn, Share
Yoga, vegetarian cooking, but not an expert by any means ...
What I Can Share With Hosts
Happy to cook, chat, speak English, French or Spanish, and do some Yoga if you like.
My Interests
Living a simple life, fully in the present, reducing needs to a minimum, sharing what I can each give and learning from others. I like the idea of some kind of alternative community lifestyle close to nature.
