Description
I've travelled quite a lot those past few years and met many people in many different places, mainly from workaway, woofing, house sitting and trust roots. I'm good with animals, as I was once in charge of 40 huskies, chickens and horses for one week all alone in a remote area of Sweden. I was also a cook (my only degree) and responsible of volunteers in a Buddhist oriented woofing community for about a year, in the North of Scotland. I'm a peaceful man, easy going, reliable and trustworthy, and I love taking good care of other people's home. I'm patient and calm, mindful of other people, and I value those who share thr same qualities. 😊
I started to work at 17 as a cook, then tried a few different things. Before my travels in 2019, when I left everything behind, I was a self-taught programmer and did some freelance and teaching in that trade. And before that, I was a journalist and chief editor of a magazine about historical video games for seven years, and was then in charge of a dozen of freelance writers. I also own a professional driver certificate, with a specialisation in security and protection. A totally different life!
Today I don't do programming anymore, but I can still teach the basics, and assist with computer stuff if needed, even though I prefer cooking and doing basic stuff (I'm not a carpenter, sorry!). I spend most of my free time walking, writing and reading. Give me some trees and rustling leaves, and I'll be happy 😊.
I'm a philosopher, but not a boring one 😜 I like good food and good people (I'm French), and I value cohesion, wisdom and serenity above everything else. I'm pragmatic and open minded, I believe in the daily life, and not so much in concepts and theories.
