We are a newly married, French-American couple. Olivia was a student of food anthropology in Massachusetts, USA before coming to France. Camille, who lived in the Var, France, has an agricultural degree and many years of experience working on a farm. In 2015, we completed one season at our very own nursery!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After completing our first agricultural season together, we are traveling to explore and search for new opportunities. We love meeting others, exchanging stories and laughs, and embracing the unplanned voyage..

Interests

Our interests include all that is autonomy! We have turned this into a career through our agricultural projects, but also love to explore other do-it-yourself activities -- making paper and candles, preserving foods, foraging for wild plants. Naturally, we are also big nature lovers!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2015, we started our own greenhouse, which was an amazing experience! We passed many hours sowing seeds and tending to plants and experimenting with new techniques. Although we have finished this activity, we look forward to starting something new soon!
