Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

Several friends of mine told me a lot about all the benefits drawing from a couchsurfing experience ! I now want to experience it by myself !
It is to me, a very innovative way to put the human encounter at the center of any travel aspiration !
Also, it proves how another economy is possible : the shared/gift economy is really managing to prevent maket-oriented intentions to conquer all the sides of our lives and societies.
Couchsurfing is really helpfull in meeting local people, an essential feature for an incredible journey ! So I'm really excited about it !

Interessen

I like to be engage in associations, organisations or groups of people that try to make a difference in our world. Indeed, I am deeply interested in discovering and experiencing alternative organisation of societies, alternative lifestyle and philosophy that move towards more respect for the environment and the entire mankind condition.
That is also why I like to travel, meeting new people, culture and become more open-minded!
I love music and I am very curious about discovering new voices, sounds and instruments around the world. One good example that illustrate my vision of music may be the organisation Playing For Change https://playingforchange.com/episodes/?order=most-watched
I like walking, watching films, eating, cooking, drinking, being active and also chilling...
