Born and raised in France / Studied political science and local project management + sustainable development (I swear, I can explain what it means). Circumstances and unexpected life choices eventually lead my way to my current home, the ecovillage of Suderbyn on the dreamy island of Gotland, where i live, work as a gardener and amarteur upcycler (litteraly it means : "the guy that looks at a pile of garbage and says "GUYS I THINK WE CAN BUILD A GREENHOUSE WITH THESE") and do cool stuff with my community family

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Blocked a machete with my left hand. It was dark, 6 in the morning and I thought it was a stick. The dude ran away eventually. The rest of the story is actually even more adventurous and deep
