🙏

My name is Adrien, I am from La Ciotat, in the south of France.

Came back from India in December 2022 after 2 years living mostly in a yoga center!
After an intense 1750+ hours of training I am certified to teach classical hatha yoga ! I have been teaching and traveling since then around Europe and France, especially where I come from !

My plans for the coming month :
Conduct yoga classes every weekend
Enjoy Marseille, host guests on week days
Prepare for a sailing trip

I started to use Cs on my first amazing trip alone in England for a month during summer after my 1st year at University.

I achieved in Marseille a technical degree in electronics and industrial informatics with an internship in Spain.
Then continued with a bachelor degree in Marketing in September 2019 in Aix-en-Provence. From that time I started enrolling in different startups and even made my own using technology for our well-being.

In parallel I learn a lot from my different trips in Omaha and Beijing, from my university association and also as being a scout chief for youths, list continues.

In early 2020, l did a hitchhike europe tour with a friend!

And then enrolled in a Erasmus Internship in Munich started from September 2020 to February 2021! I worked there for a company which teaches classical hatha yoga!

There in Germany I have been hosted by wonderful hosts with who I shared heartful moments and free of rent cost! Thank you, to all of you.

From June 2021 I went to India and enrolled on a 7 month long volunteering program and extended my stay as this experience was so enriching. Got back to France in April 2022 while planning my next journey to India…

In the meanwhile I volunteered from home for the Conscious Planet mouvement called Save Soil (Sauvons les sols) and even got my voice in the french documentary !

Yoga has taken a significant part in my life as a complete tool for my own well-being as well as for my surroundings. I would be glad to share some of my experience and practices with you. Moreover I really enjoy hikes, playing basketball and much more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Firstly I started to use Cs because it was a cheap way to travel then I experienced wonderful moments, very generous and kind people. The reason I am still here is to give back and share this feeling I experienced. I started cs right before my 18's. If I can inspire you to take a journey towards your own well-being, even better.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can share with you some simple yoga and meditations which you can make use of in your daily life ! Also about cooking and eating healthy ! 🌞
