I am born in Grenoble and spend childhood between city and country side. Then, with my family, I moved to a tiny village in the Alps for my teenage hood, I started to travel around France and neighbor countries. I started to live on my own at the age of 18 Working with kids at school, teaching in a circus school and nonprofit organisation managed with friends. Then I took myself on a bicycle journey for for years around France, Italy, Greece, turkey, Georgia, Armenia, Iran, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan Kazakhstan and Kyrgyzstan. More or less from home to the Himalayas. Back in France, I got involve for three years into creating earth friendly sustainable communities and giving yoga classes in Belgium.
Traveled around west America and Guatemala to study yoga therapy, Ayurveda and medicinal herbs and discover the deepness of the see in belize for tow years.
Then after a wonderful transcannadian journey, I came back to Europe.
Since I go back and forth to Thailand and other destination to teach and learn, as well growing tipis on the alpes mountain range with the vision of a retreat center based on ayurvedic system with local medical plants and mushrooms.

I am really easy going person, clean, free open mind, positive, cheerful and responsible. Conscious and adventurous. I like to play like a child and have a lot of fun. Have a look to my references for more informations.

PHILOSOPHY

When I was teenager, I wanted to change the world, then I changed my mind.
We are living here and now in paradise, manifested by harmoniums balance between body, mind and soul through reason, will, feeling and prayers.
The older we get we put good things first,
Together we shall make life our concern,
Thankful to learn and willing to get train.
Peace, love and breaths.
Namaste.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

As you can see I'm more or less never home. Still surfers can be welcome to experience a stay in beautiful house made by they hands of my father and filled up by the love of my mother.
For most of the time I got hosts. I share the principle of all, knowledge and what I carry with me. I volunteer for all, if you want to talk, have a good time, set up a project, play sports, repair or build, make music, paint ... I like to be helpful, for me it is a path for learning.
So do not be shy and ask!
I spend a lot of time on the road, I know some good tips and beautiful places over many countries, so if you need some help for your trip send me a message ;)

I believe that sharing is caring, couch surfing is a great sharing network.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbing to the very last branches of a biiiigg tree.
Juggling with 7 balls or 5 clubs.
Standing on my hands for more than a minute.
Cycling over 15000 km.
Paragliding above my home town lake.
Sun set in Los Angeles.
Walk weeks in the jungle of Guatemala.
Diving in a coral reef full a wild life.
And above all practicing my yoga series closed eyes haha!

Out of this, I found amazing to make a child laughthing, feeling the crocodile staying peacefully in the same water I swim in, giving will to life again to some one and hold some acrobatics on a huge stallion who was not this friendly at the begining.

To wake up every morning is just amazing!
