CURRENT MISSION

I'm back in Clermont Ferrand, the city where I studied, to start something new, live in a co-housing project, where we have common spaces to share activities and where we expect to create workshops, events for us and opened to anybody, to help restoring social links between people and make our lives more enjoyable and sustainable. Former engineer in energy field, I recently changed my job to start my own organic bakery 🥖😁

ABOUT ME

Worked as engineer for some years before understanding that this wasn't the life I wanted to live. I started a "initiatic" cycling trip to widen my field of possibilities, my year cycling Japan from alternatives to organic farming to transition initiatives really helped me find my way ! I'm still on this quest for meaning, but I accept and I'm grateful it took part of my life and will be there my whole life 🥰

PHILOSOPHY

optimistic...every single day on mama earth is a gift 🙏☺️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because sharing and fraternity is life ! The more you share the more you "enrich" you... goods and money doesn't enrich you, they make you slave and individualist.

Interests

sustainability, cycling, music, enjoying life... and recently natural farming, permaculture, self building, transition town, community, local resilience, colapsology, personal change psychology, eco-philosophy, yoga, organic sourdough banking...
