Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Couchsurfing is a system I want to encourage.
I have been hosted quite a lot and for free by local peoples during my trips and it was each time an amazing experience. I wish I could provide the same kind of experience to people I am hosting.
Interests
My main interest is travelling, whith a focus on biology and ethnology. I like to spend time with local people, exchanging about their opinions on various things and helping them in their daily work. I also study living things in their environment (plant and animals) and how people interract with them.
I am engaged in ecology, I do my own organic garden and try to make things myself as much as possible.
When I am not travelling physically, I host foreigners. It is an other kind of travelling experience !

Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach about how to do things by yourself: Natural plant medicine, natural encense, inks and colours, gardening with old methods, laudry soap, leather shoes...
I can also teach about plants and animals in the wild.
I would be happy to share these knowledges with someone interested by this,
but I will be curious to learn from others on others topics.
