About Me

CURRENT TRIP
I am currently having a 5 months hitchhiking tour around Europe with my little penguin Dock. We are working in farms for weeks and then we travel between two farms, trying to see the most beautiful places of this old continent. I want to experience sustainable ways of living and producing food, to understand how we could make the world better by changing our industrial agricultural system.

Past : Paris - Lyon- Nice -one month in a farm in the southern Alps - Firenze (belissima ! )- Ravenna - three weeks in a farm in Asolo - Venice - Padova - Ljubljana - Budapest - Vienna - A permaculture farm in Wels-plane hitchhiking to Karlsruhe- Nuremberg- Berlin

Incoming : Denmark - a farm on a Danish island ! - going back home

I just open myself to every new experience I could find and it works very well for the moment. I love to learn about everything, and I will probably ask you tons of questions about your life and your habits and what you like !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just hitchhiked a plane. I know it sounds a bit crazy but I just went to a small private airport in Wels, Austria and I asked a pilote going to Germany if he could help me... and it worked ! Then I just had one of the most crazy experience in my life :D

Teach, Learn, Share

If you want to know why the sky is blue, or how a battery works, I can tell you. I know a lot of scientific stuff thanks to my studies and I really love to share it. But we can also not talk about it because you might not give a f*** which is totally normal haha. I can teach french and share my travel and hitchhiking experience. I also practice meditation regularly and I'll be happy to share and learn from the way you see the life. And as this is the purpose of my trip, I'll be happy to talk about sustainability, and other ways of living.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can do french crepes and my very special sweet chocolate cake ! And I am always up for a beer, especially if you have local beers that I don't know .
