I can discuss and help others learn about communitarian housing alternatives. Also interested in discussions about exchange rates, currency exchange, duty free, haggling/bargaining.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
To learn and discuss various topics and to share information about what it takes to stay at or temporarily live in a monastery. (Top writer on the topic of monasticism on quora.com.)
Musique, films et livres
Music: Ska! Jazz fusion. Classical. Afro-Pop. Zydeco. Gregorian chant. British Invasion. Bluegrass. Newgrass. Electronica. Soul. Funk. Anything with BRASS instruments. Films: Foreign, comedy, drama, experimental, anime. Books: Non-fiction, especially history, current events, biography, how-to & DIY, philosophy, religion (all kinds), travel, diaries & logs.
Une chose incroyable que j'ai faite
Resided (and residing) in a Benedictine monastery with sisters (nuns) as a live-in volunteer.
Ce que je peux offrir à mes hôtes
International cooking abilities; yard work; dog walking (in most cases) & care; cleaning; picking (produce); English & (some) German conversation skills; writing skills (including tutoring and ghost writing); ability to drive stick (getting rarer these days); child care (just one, please); storytelling; roofing (hammering shingles); jewelry chain untangling; silver & shoe polishing; flowering plant and houseplant expertise from working for florists; good listener and conversationalist (I.E.

Mes centres d'intérêt
Two places I hope to visit some day: Argentina & Sicily, perhaps via couchsurfing.
