Hello! In my life I have done the things many people do: living the student life, graduating and got a job. However, I was always interested in alternative ways of living; in farming, communities, self-sufficiency, being close to nature, reducing my footprint... I am very far from an expert but I like to see how I can implement small things in my life. In the summer of 2019 I quit my job and started volunteering in various places in Europe with families that have consciously chosen a lifestyle that suits them. I helped renovating an off-grid house, was in a community, worked on a farm and did goathearding in the mountains. And this is where I am now, still on the road. So far it has been super inspiring and educative. During this trip I heard many great stories about couchsurfing and although I already had an account, I never dared to actually do it. But since I heard all these stories I cannot wait to try couchsurfing myself.
