ABOUT ME

I chose to do a civil service abroad instead of the military service in Germany. I was living in an Arche community in Québec, Canada, all the time together with five mentally disabled persons
In my 36 hours off I got per week I liked to visit the country
Now I saw quite a lot of things in North America, through Couchsurfing I had amazing experiences and I ask myself - why did I never travel that much and intense in Europe before?

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy every 36 h off that l'Arche gives you!
