About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy life and see the world

ABOUT ME

I m French, so I love cheese, bread and wine. But that's not all about me.
I’ve got a ginger beard, two hands and two feet.

Now I'm a carpenter (I make the wooden roofs of houses...) and I really love to work with wood to do all the things I can imagine. I work with other materials too, for example leather, and want to learn about basketwork, weaving...
I studied architecture during three years, so I would be happy to share about this subject if you want.

Moreover, I really want to learn as much as possible about agriculture to become more or less self sufficient in the future. That’s why I decided to wwoof (volunteer in farms) for a year in the UK. I'm really curious to learn about vegetable growing, how to take care of the animals, and how to transform simple things into cheese, butter, beer, bread, honey...

PHILOSOPHY

I think it’s really important for people to have extra time to escape from their job, because unfortunately not many people are satisfied with their job and do it just for the money. So we have to escape or to find a job we like to become ourselves. I hope to live a life which will not be guided by money.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travelled in Latino America a year and met really interesting people thanks to couch surfing.
Next, back to France I hosted some people in my house in Nantes.
And now, back on the road, in Scotland I hope to meet amazing people again and share good times with them.

Interests

About my interests I think you will find a lot of them in my presentation. In general, I love to understand how things work and I believe that we can do more or less everything and we don’t need industry for a million of things.
I really like to cook too, especially deserts. I’m always happy to discover new food. I like to hear good music and share time with friends.
For sure I love to travel, to discover news landscapes and be surprised by other cultures.
