CURRENT MISSION

Survive my sons' teenage years

ABOUT ME

Just a person who likes to enjoy life in a very strong interaction with nature. I have sheep, I spin their fleece, I grow my own vegetables, I have chickens for their eggs, I have bees, both for pollination and for their honey, and I am planting fruit trees any time I can afford them. I do what I like without caring too much about what others think I should be doing instead.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't bug anyone... Help if you can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to have people over from other places, as I am not really much of a traveler any longer (kids and animals keep me bound home!)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

No experience in an organized way, but I traveled all over Europe in a similar fashion (word of mouth for alternatives to youth hostels)

Interests

Pretty much everything...

• animals
• chickens
• fashion
• cooking
• marathon
• engineering
• mathematics
• software

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many genre to be exhaustive. I read a lot, I use Netflix because I cannot spend the money to go to a theater as often as I want to enjoy a good movie. I listen to all kind of music and my kids have taught me to appreciate some contemporary music.
