About Me

Warning! My house is NOT located in Brussels or nearby!
The closest "city" is Gembloux, not Brussels.

CURRENT MISSION

Voir le monde et y croiser les belles âmes - See the world and meet some beautiful souls

ABOUT ME
I am opened to the meetings of every types, curious about all the places and all the customs. Now I am a mother and I travel with my son Sam (10 months) and my husband Gaston. We are making a big tour in France to learn self-sufficiency during 2 years (2015-2016) and we need to come back regularly in Belgium. Every 6 months, I need to find places to make the journey until Brussels. So we are looking families like us where we can sleep one night together.

PHILOSOPHY

"Naturiala non sunt turpia."
[Things of Nature are not "disgusting"]

---

"Il n'est pas suffisant d'avoir raison tout seul."
"Soulignons qu'un comportement de "dingue" n'est pas nécessairement signe d'un esprit malade. Il peut être la seule réponse possible à un contexte absurde et intenable."
Watzlawick

"It is not sufficient enough to be right alone."
"Let us underline that a behavior of "nutcase" sign of a sick spirit is not inevitably. He can be the only answer possible for an absurd and intolerable context."
Watzlawick

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Parce que je pense qu'il faut contrer le cloisonnement entre les gens : se rencontrer, se croiser, éviter les mouvements de masse, la culture de masse, le tourisme sans âme. Quoi de mieux que de rencontrer les habitants d'une région et de voyager le coeur ouvert?

First experience in January 2011 in Sardaignia, we were hosted by really nice people...
Also in Greece in 2001

Interests

Literature, music (the first medium of human communication before talking), shares of knowledge, the NATURE and still the NATURE, to learn every day of my life and the simple happiness without too many constraints. Self-sufficiency,

Littérature, musique (le premier moyen de communication de l'humain avant la parole), partage de connaissances, la NATURE et encore la NATURE, apprendre tous les jours de la sa vie et le bonheur simple sans s'imposer trop de contraintes.
