Description

Hi! I'm a born and raised Alsacian from Strasbourg living in Montreal, Québec, for the past 6 years.
I’m about to make one of my dreams come true: living for a while in different European countries to immerse myself in local customs and open my mind even more to the world and its people.
I am an amateur photographer, in love with nature and animals. I enjoy contemplating landscapes, listening to people and their stories, good music, and convivial moments.

I began studying business at 18, but I quickly realized it didn’t really suit me. Coming from a family of horticulturists and florists, I was drawn to something more hands-on and collaborative, rather than competitive.
After many years working as a landscaper in Alsace and Quebec, I am now looking for new projects that will shape who I become in the future.
I would love to spend time in Italy, Scotland, Greece, Eastern Europe or Turkey. Learning Italian is one of my aims.

I am very physically active and always ready to help. I need to feel useful and believe that solidarity and mutual support should be at the heart of human relationships.
My world revolves around authenticity: conversations, food, adventures, nature.
I would be happy to take part in your projects and exchange with you.

I hope to see you soon,
Arthur

Ciao! Sono un alsaziano di nascita e di origine, di Strasburgo, e vivo a Montreal, Québec, da sei anni.
Sto per realizzare uno dei miei sogni: vivere per un po’ in diversi paesi europei per immergermi nelle tradizioni locali e aprire ancora di più la mia mente al mondo e alle sue persone.
Sono un fotografo amatoriale, innamorato della natura e degli animali. Mi piace contemplare i paesaggi, ascoltare le persone e le loro storie, la buona musica e i momenti conviviali.

Quando avevo 18 anni, ho iniziato a studiare economia, ma presto mi sono reso conto che non era il mio mondo. Crescendo in una famiglia di orticoltori e fioristi, sono sempre stato attratto dal lavoro pratico, dalla creatività e dalla collaborazione—cose che mi sembravano lontane dall’ambiente competitivo del mondo degli affari.
Dopo molti anni di lavoro come paesaggista in Alsazia e in Québec, ora sto cercando nuovi progetti che possano contribuire a definire chi diventerò in futuro.
Mi piacerebbe trascorrere del tempo in Italia, Scozia, Grecia, Europa dell’Est o Turchia. Imparare l’italiano è uno dei miei obiettivi.

Sono molto attivo fisicamente e sempre pronto ad aiutare. Ho bisogno di sentirmi utile e credo che solidarietà e supporto reciproco debbano essere al centro delle relazioni umane.
Il mio mondo ruota attorno all’autenticità: conversazioni, cibo, avventure, natura.
Sarei felice di partecipare ai vostri progetti e di scambiare esperienze con voi.

Spero di vedervi presto,
Arthur
