About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Need to move. Need to meet new people. Need to open my mind. And, above all, need to share.

ABOUT ME

Well, I Think I’m… cheerful, smiling, positive, combative, and in a very bad taste when I’m hungry. I love spending good times with my family and my friends. But I need to meet new people, new ways, new cultures. I love sharing ideas, viewpoints, laughs (and a glass of good wine during a good meal). I hate habits and love changes.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to find the equilibrium beetween ameliorate my life as if I may never die and enjoy life as if I may die tomorrow. Life needs every minutes, dont’ want to lose my time with futilities, I’m tring to look only for the essentials.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For now, I don’t participate a lot… I’d like to make more but I don’t have enough of time (or of energy ??) But I think I’ll change all that, as I’ll leave Switzerland and my actual life.
I’d like to travel and meet new people with CS. And, as with my actuals friends, I’d like to share ideas, knowledges, passions and good times with the ones I’ll meet during my exile.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

As long as I can remember, I have always borrowed a lot of sofas… But with CS project, I’m a beginner !!! Not really far from home, but always with kind people, I made great and interesting meetings.

Interests

Learning... everything is interesting
Natural medecine (plants, ayurveda, chinese medecine...)
Photography (with my little ridiculous camera ☺): for the colors, the textures, the detail that no one can see… Immortalize important moments in life.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

A travel between Bolivia and Paraguay... Remained standing in front of the bus, during more than 10 hours, on really bad roads of sand and pebbles, sharing mate and coca with the driver and local people, trying to learn guarani !

Teach, Learn, Share

I like teaching ski, snowboard, bolas, painting, making campfire, builgings hood’s cabin and all that I know. I like teaching because when you really want to teach something to someone, you’re forced to create a relationship. And this relationship will become more important that the subject you’re teaching… And, that’s it, that makes grewing up !
I like learning, I’m very curious, (and, no, it isn’t a bad weakness…). Above all, everythings about nature, science, human nature, ethnicity, history. Maybe one day I’ll understand the world and the people around me… ☺ And I work hard for that.
The most important for me : teaching and learning are sharing.
