About Me

I am the happiest person in the world when I'm travelling. Love outdoor activities, try my best to recycle, not waste water and food, I have the tendency to be kind all forms of life and love hiking in the wild. I am very eco-conscious and on a journey to reduce my footprint to a minimum. I also know dozens of delicious nutritious vegan meals I am always happy to share! Ah and I don't do cars unless in case of absolute necessity. I only do (my feet) or motorbikes, rain or shine. So if you want to go for a ride, or a walk, I am in!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am the most curious person, so I want to know you, dear dweller, and the wisdom you have to share with the world. How could I meet you if couch surfing did not exist ? It would be much harder, and way too awkward for an introvert like me.

Interests

Nature. Nothing fascinates me more than nature. Music, music, live music and art. Street art. Photography. I endeavour to respect all living creatures without discrimination.
I also took a liking on learning Wing Chun Kung Fu.
And I am trying to get serious with my Vipassana mediation practice.

Music, Movies, and Books

Jazz / Soul / Reggae / Rock / Hip Hop sometimes / Classical - mostly old school artists. I won't blast my Spotify playlists unless you ask for it
Books: I've read all kind of books, I am avid reader. I am currently going through a phase where physics and philosophy occupy most of my reading time. Understanding the world I live in seems to be an obsession these days, so quantum physics and meditation are topics that can get me going with for hours.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Did one of the hardest great walk in Europe with a poor fitness condition (yes it does count as amazing common'). And all the amazing and unexpected landscapes and wildlife I've seen while travelling. I am in awe with nature, making the effort of opening my eyes to see it isn't amazing really, but I am amazed when I think about how beautiful and miraculous life is.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know delicious vegan meals, I can speak to you in French.
I am into growing my herbs and veggies on my balcony and I compost all my food scraps with a now thriving worm farm (aka the "wormies"), so I reckon I've got some worm skills I can share too... ha...
I make a living of building, maintaining, and marketing websites content and I am an enthusiast photographer so I can share the knowledge I have in those fields too. and I am interested in anything you're willing to share with me!

What I Can Share with Hosts

An Epic Vegan meal, and good vibes :-)
