FIRST!! I haven't been good at responding to requests recently because I have been so busy and forget to check Couchsurfing. I have a small one-bedroom apartment. I might be able to host you if you don't mind a mat on the floor.

I am in France working in nuclear fusion and living the dream! ABOUT ME Farmer, engineer, teacher, traveler, perpetual student. I work hard and play hard. I do my best to tolerate people's ignorance and ask that folks kindly do the same for me. I enjoy good conversations, but I don't keep up with current events. It is very difficult to offend me, but that doesn't mean you should try. Cheers. PHILOSOPHY Learn from yesterday, Live for today, Look toward tomorrow.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I love using couchsurfing whenever I travel. Finding local people to host me broadens my experience in that place and culture so much more than any hotel ever could. My mind is opened with every person I meet. So far I haven't lived in very accessible places so I haven't been able to host very much but when I do host I like to go to dinner with my CS'ers and get to know about their travels, get inspired for more places to go and learn all the more about the world and its people. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE My roommate in New Mexico signed us up for couchsurfing. We hosted a couple of really interesting and nice folks and I've been loving it ever since.

Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
I rode my bicycle from Ge er mu in Qinghai province to Kunming in Yunnan province in China. It was over 2000 km and most of it was extremely high elevation. It was grueling but by far the most beautiful, challenging, and amazing trip I have ever made.
Enseigner, apprendre, partager
I'm an engineer, so my skills and knowledge are in mathmatics, physics, and technology. I taught math and physics in Africa and China. It isn't such a practical knowledge set for travelers, but I am pretty good at fixing bicycles and making small repairs to little things if you need any help. I really like learning language and culture. Please share with me some things that most visitors don't get to know about your place, people, religion, creed, and culture.
Ce que je peux offrir à mes hôtes
I used to have more written here, but I had one guest take advantage of my hospitality and I ended up regretting it. So, if you need anything more than a bed and a shower, just ask. I am happy to provide it if I have it and if I don't have it, I am sure I can help you find it. If I have time, I'd be happy to make dinner for you, or we can just go out to eat. If you come on the weekend then we can have more time to chat and swap travel stories.
Mes centres d'intérêt
I have a lot of varied interests. I'm not up on popular culture nor do I follow any sports teams. However, I do love playing sports of all kinds. I like reading novels and science fiction whenever I have time. And of course, I really enjoy languages. My goal for this first year in France is to reach conversational fluency in French.
