CURRENT MISSION

improve a bit everyday, so others can benefit of it

ABOUT ME

Have been living out of france for about 9 years. After 5 years in China, I took a one year backpack trip. I then reorientated my career and I now work in the forest sustainable management. I am mostly driven by challenges, and trying my best to live in the present moment.
I am mostly vegetarian, I dont drink alcohol take no drugs and I sleep very early. I also need my space and time to meditate several hours a day :-)

PHILOSOPHY

Learn as if you would live forever, live as if you would die tomorrow.
Important is not what you do, but what you learn...
My favourite quote : "be the change you want to see in the world", Gandhi

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been enjoying couchsurfing before as a traveller, so now that I have an appartment, I am happy to welcome travellers.
Please, dont count on me for visits of the city and parties as I am a very early sleeper. However, if you want to discuss different points of view, you are welcome at my place.
