CURRENT MISSION

To figure out why.

ABOUT ME

I am a photographer originally coming from New Orleans, USA. Now I am living in a small village in central France, making there a small community project, renovating an old house with some land, including permaculture and solar power projects. You can read more on this project here: http://www.seekingfocus.com/levignaud

PHILOSOPHY

Generosity is the virtue which produces peace.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While my direct participation with CS is limited, I have always tried to travel in a sustainable and engaging way. I think that couch surfing embodies those ideas and seeks to create a community built around that philosophy of travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, I have had nothing but great experiences through Couchsurfing- Met a wide variety of interesting people from many different cultures. Couchsurfing has also given me the opportunity to get involved, learn about, and understand local cultures in ways that wouldn't have been possible otherwise. It's a great way to connect, meet like-minded people, and explore- all in a very reciprocal way.

Interests

My interests are really varied and I am constantly looking to learn something new. There's a pretty good chance we have some interests in common, but if not– even better!
