About Me

ABOUT ME

(En français ci-bas)
This particular trip to Switzerland is very special to me. I have a Stage IV cancer diagnosis, and I am making the very best out of the energy I have. Switzerland has always been a country I loved visiting, and hiking, in the past. Now, I consider this trip being a chance to say thank you to the country that I loved so much visiting.

**Français**
Ce voyage en Suisse m'est cher. J'ai un diagnostic de cancer stade IV, et j'utilise toute mon énergie vitale afin de revenir en visite dans le pays des montagnes et du chocolat, pays que j'ai adoré visiter tout au long de mes années de voyageurs.

I enjoy what I enjoy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- While cyclo-touring in India, choosing to not take my camera out, but rather flavor the precious unique moment. Silence was filling, accompanied by three camel pulled trolleys on a secluded dirt road.
- Skinned and butchered a deer; made a native drum out of the hide.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn news ways, new perspectives, new cultures, new sensations, new smells. I love to share anything I know: timber framing, cooking recipes, sprouting, how to enjoy unsweetened chocolate.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Anything I know and have experienced, a good laugh, a moment of peace.

Countries I’ve Visited

Czech Republic, Denmark, France, Germany, India, Italy, Nepal, Norway, Switzerland, United States
