Bienvenid@s a mi perfil !

Soy Pierre, de Francia. Me encuentro mochileando por Colombia, un país que siempre ma ha fascinado. Es mi tercera visita por este hermoso país.

He pasado los últimos 13 años viviendo en el extranjero, estudiando y trabajando como ingeniero e investigador. Sin embargo, ahora estoy buscando una actividad más significativa y satisfactoria, que ayude a los demás y a la naturaleza en la que vivimos.

Tuve un estilo de vida nómada durante más de 4 años en los que viajé por Europa, Sudamérica y Asia.

Me encantan las actividades al aire libre (especialmente el senderismo). Me gusta tocar la guitarra, el ajedrez y estar rodeado de gente :) En mi tiempo libre, mantengo blogs sobre permacultura, senderismo y viajes.

Si te gusta mi perfil, no dudes en escribirme !

Hi there, welcome to my profile!

I'm Pierre, from France. I'm currently backpacking and volunteering in beautiful Colombia. I'm really excited to get to know its rich culture and welcoming people :)

I spent the last 13 years living abroad, studying and working as an engineer and researcher. However, I’m now looking for a more meaningful and fulfilling activity, that would help others and the nature we live in.

I had a nomadic lifestyle for more than 4 years during which I traveled and volunteered in Europe, South America and Asia.

I love outdoor activities (especially hiking). I enjoy playing guitar, chess and being around people :) In my spare time, I maintain blogs on permaculture, trekking, travelling and machine learning.

If you resonate with my profile and feel like hosting me or hang out, send me message !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
