CURRENT MISSION

Integrating myself in Nancy et de trouver des gens sympa!

ABOUT ME

I love to take the off beaten path. I've been studying french for nine years now et ça va.... I enjoy Norwegians Folk music and a little Bjork from time to time. I had my first garden this past summer and it was very rewarding. I enjoy eating greek olives and cooking my own bread when I have an oven. I love to travel and meet people from all different cultures. I believe that the only way to achieve true peace in this world is to break the walls of ignorance...alone then will we see how alike we are all to each other.

PHILOSOPHY

“To seek freedom is the only driving force I know. Freedom to fly off into that infinity out there. Freedom to dissolve; to lift off; to be like the flame of a candle, which, in spite of being up against the light of a billion stars, remains intact, because it never pretended to be more than what it is: a mere candle.” (Carlos Castaneda)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to go get a cafe/verre with couchsurfers and talk about culture.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met a couple of very nice people with Couchsurfing and getting a coffee!! I love the idea and am glad that the system is in place.

Interests

hiking, biking, playing guitar, the ocean, mountains, snow, never taking life for granted. I love cooking, and eating other peoples cooking. I love and miss farming and getting my hands dirty and look forward to when it's warm enough to do some more french traveling/hitchhiking! I love camping and nature, getting to know my surroundings, france countryside, and cobblestones.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I just finished climbing the dent d'oche in the Alps and went above the cloudline! Never in my life have I seen anything so sereal and peaceful as the sun breaking through the clouds and the Mont Blanc in the background.

I also know how to eat a lobster like nobodys buisness.

Teach, Learn, Share

“A path without a heart is never enjoyable. On the other hand, a path with heart is easy— it does not make a warrior work at liking it; it makes for a joyful journey; as long as a man follows it, he is one with it.” (Castaneda)
