About Me

Hi,

I grew up in a small village in the French Alps, a really beautifull valley, spending my time mainly outdoor, climbing moutains, skiing, fishing, building huts in the wood, and having bonefire, building bow, always with my swiss army knife in the pocket, and learning the piano....later I started playing the guitar and accordion,doing windsurfing on the lake we have here.
After studying English and Spanish I started travelling and enjoying more and more meeting people from all over the world. 2 years ago, I decided to come back to my home valley, and live here at least for a while. I m now running a small mobile organic food business, and I enjoy cooking healthy food, beeing outside and meeting people.

Outdoors, sport, music, people, growing veggies are still a big part in my life.

Opening our mind, respect environnement and people, trying to encourage diversity, are a few important concepts for me. I like contrasts, between the seasons, the emotions, the light....evrything that makes life lively, and keeping us aware of our world and ourselves.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

That s great way to get in touch with people from all over the world, a good tool to meet some people we believe we could have something to share with.
Althoug I prefer the magical side of the unexpected when I meet someone, CS can give more chance to meet people than expecting the unexpected...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking by night in a river full of fluorescent plankton.

Teach, Learn, Share

I teach sailing, and Sea Kayaking. But also like teaching juggling, or anayting I can bring to someonelse. Teaching is a way for me to feel i'm alive! It's a wonderfull way to create links between people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can show them my valley around, the rivers, lake, mountains, forest, cooking some good food with veggies from the garden, sharing some wine or beer, playing music if you do also, or teaching it, or just have a good chat!
