CURRENT MISSION
To convince people of the urgency of the climate crisis.

ABOUT ME

Can't really sum it up. Take a look at my interests. I live and have lived without a television since January 1988, and I don't miss it. I like the simple things in life: conversations, walks, riding my bike on a sunny day, having an excellent coffee.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hope that, by accepting people into my home, I'm adding a tiny, tiny bit to the global trust.

My mission here is to promote travelling by other means than by air plane and motor vehicles in general. I'm very concerned about the state of our planet, therefore i ONLY host people who have chosen not to fly, I'm sure we will have other things in common as well :).
