CURRENT MISSION I must be gone and live, or stay and die ABOUT ME I love to laugh and make jokes (sorry their translation in english are rude sometimes). I like giant surprises (make and receive). I don't have a favorite color, simply because I love all the colors (kinda rainbow watching addict). My favorite flower is the iris lion head. Aperitif IS my religion, I LIKE a nap in the afternoon, I NEED my coffee in the morning. In addition to my french citizenship I have also the Uzupis nationality. I love cheese and wine (I used to sell it, so, I know a lot about it). I need to receive 30 smiles a day (sometimes hard like in Paris metro). I LOVE my language, to read it, to listen it, to write it. What else? You will discover it step by step. PHILOSOPHY Today is the first day of the rest of my life
I would say that I am someone who has its head on the moon and its feet on the earth or sometimes the opposite. I just like to discover new things and meeting new people is a big part of those things. ;)
Curieux de nature, humain aussi et dans le respect d'autrui
Off line since covid, I just landed back here when, at last, CS offered me a year fees. I haven't stop travelling past 6 years but we grow damn old right ? Now, I am initiating my kid to discovering the world and meeting people. PREVIOUSLY ON THIS PAGE, it was some of this : smiling curious amazed (or dumb, same same) always ready so little eccentric Nowadays I'm living in Nîmes, my everyday life is very busy, I do make time to meet people and make new friends but I'm not a tourist guide. Rarely up for hosting on weekends My name is Barbara, "Babs" is my regular nickname. You can use both. ** ** IF YOU DON'T READ MY PROFILE, I DON'T CARE ! ** ** There is NO secret code below. I'd say : It doesn't matter where, it doesn't matter when, it is all about who. I'm utterly glad and grateful for having that much traveled to that many mind-blowing PEOPLE PHILOSOPHY Nothing you think matters matters.

ABOUT ME je suis sociable et j'aime voyager
I was born and raised in Australia to french parents. I grew up an extremely passionate and extroverted kid who developed a passion for manual arts. I then went on to work in theatre and film building props and special effects. I am a very sociable and outgoing person and love sports, activities and going out for a drink with good friends. That being said ill also happily enjoy a few days of hiding in a room playing video games.

PHILOSOPHY to be happy, travel around the world meet people and learn. Have a simple life
IN ENGLISH : 🌟 Hey traveler, I’m Joff — a funeral director who loves celebrating… life! 🌟 🚌 Just passing through between trains? 🎯 Dropping your backpack in Nîmes? Great choice: 2,600 years of history, sun-blushed Roman stones, winding lanes full of secrets… and me to unlock them for you. I’ll whisk you around once the tourists are gone: sunset detour by the amphitheater, brandade from a grandma-approved spot, Costières wines (not exactly grand cru — who cares, they tell the city’s story). 🎶 Soundtrack? From Bach to psytrance — my playlist has no labels, and neither does my home. 🛋️ Couch zone Convertible sofa in the living room (I sleep on the mezzanine just above) Wi-Fi, AC for those over-enthusiastic afternoons Washing machine to set your underwear back on the righteous path Bathroom with bathtub at your disposal — along with confidences: what’s shared here stays here 🤫 🌈 Vibe check Come as you are, leave as you like. LGBTQIA+, laid-back straight folks, straight-and-curious, “hmm-what-if” straights, shy souls — you’re perfect as you are. Here, awkwardness melts faster than an ice cube in a pastis. Yes, I’m gay; that’s info, not a manifesto. Ask anything — just add a splash of respect. 🥂 💬 Spirit of the place We slide effortlessly from deep philosophy to silly jokes. I crave the real stuff: midnight confessions, raw authenticity, sharing that does good. Kick off your mask with your shoes; for one drink or your whole stay, be exactly who you want — zero judgment, just the pleasure of a genuine pause. 🐾 The roomie Charlotte, a mildly clingy cat 😺 — allergy warning lovingly provided. ℹ️ About my profile I was “verified” pre-Covid — chipped in to support the platform, but skipped the subscription since. Nothing shady, just a wallet call. 🏨 Need nothing but an anonymous bed and a Wi-Fi code? Hotels have you covered. 🏡 Want a slice of real Nîmes life? Knock on the door, we’ll open up 😉 EN FRANCAIS : 🌟 Hey voyageur, voyageuse, moi c’est Joff — un conseiller funéraire qui aime célébrer… la vie ! 🌟 🚌 En transit entre deux gares ? 🎯 Tu poses ton sac à Nîmes ? Bonne pioche : 2 600 ans d’histoire, des pierres romaines qui rougissent au soleil, des ruelles pleines de secrets… et moi pour t’en ouvrir les portes. Je t’embarque quand les touristes ont lâché l’affaire : détour par les arènes au crépuscule, brandade dénichée chez la bonne grand-mère, vins de Costières (pas vraiment de grands crus — on s’en fout, ils racontent la ville). 🎶 Bande-son ? De Bach à la psytrance : ma playlist n’a pas d’étiquette, ma maison non plus. 🛋️ Côté canap’ Convertible dans le salon (je dors sur la mezzanine juste au-dessus) Wi-Fi, clim pour les après-midi trop vaillantes. Machine à laver pour remettre tes sous-vêtements dans le droit chemin. Salle de bain avec baignoire à ta dispo – tout comme les confidences → ce qui se dit ici reste ici 🤫 🌈 Côté vibes Qui vient est libre de repartir comme il veut. LGBTQIA+, hétéros détendus et sûrs d’eux, hétéros-curieux, hétéros « tiens ! et si… ? », grands timides : sois qui tu es, c’est très bien comme ça ! Ici, la gêne s’évapore plus vite qu’un glaçon dans le pastis. Oui, je suis gay : c’est une information plus qu’une revendication Toutes les questions sont permises – tant qu’on les arrose de respect. 🥂 💬 Esprit des lieux Ici, on passe sans effort du grand déballage philosophique à la vanne légère : j’aime le vrai, les confidences chuchotées à minuit, l’authenticité, le partage qui fait du bien. En entrant, tu poses ton masque avec tes chaussures ; tu es libre d’être exactement qui tu es le temps d’un verre ou de ton séjour, sans le moindre jugement — juste pour le plaisir d’une parenthèse sincère. 🐾 La coloc Charlotte, chatte un peu pot-de-colle 😺 — allergiques, considérez cela comme un spoiler amical. ℹ️ À propos de mon profil Mon profil était vérifié avant le Covid ; j’ai filé un coup de pouce à la plateforme, mais pas envie d’un abonnement depuis. Rien de louche, juste une décision de portefeuille. 🏨 Juste besoin d’un lit impersonnel et d’un code Wi-Fi ? → Il y a des hôtels pour ça. 🏡 Envie d’un morceau de vraie vie nîmoise ? → Frappe à la porte, on t’ouvrira 😉
