Fully vaccinated against Covid.

I'm currently in the process of moving to the area Valencia/ Sagunto, Spain. I'd like to meet interesting people who could potentially become friends.

After having travelled around Southern Europe from Spain to Croatia since June 2015 on a small scooter, I currently live near Montpellier, France.

I'm interested in a life with a small ecological footprint and close to nature (sleeping outside often, yay!). There's a great curiosity for different approaches to life and how people deal with our human condition and future global predicament. Let's see if I can get involved in some post-growth job around here.

I have diverse interests - from technology, science and knowledge to healthy living and spirituality to music and arts and movies to ecological awareness and minimalism - very curious and talkative, but also meditative.

I eat vegetarian food, sometimes fish and eggs, usually avoiding white wheat products, generally healthy and yummy, often with a minimalist tendency.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I lived in some kind of shared living setup most of my life, but often the rental contract explicitly prohibited the Couchsurfing concept, so i did not host very often yet, and when i did, it was via other websites some years ago. But obviously i love to share my life with other people. Once i find a new home I'd like to finally host many interesting guests :)

I'm a low maintenance guest whenever you're busy with your own things, but I'm mostly done with the tourist-style traveling approach of just seeing sites, eating nice food and relaxing - I really wanna meet new friends and talk and share as much as possible, so if possible I'd like to stay some days.
