Traveler ; Entrepreneur ; Single Dad. I'm currently staying in Nice, my home town. I love going around, especially mountains. And I like hosting people through Couch Surfing. Recently, life has decided that it's time to learn AI. But I admit I prefer the earth and nature. Using my hands and body to create. With my last guests we've been cooking together, I discovered a Columbian recipe, what a pleasure! * If you want to please me bring me kurut or raw cacao 🌞✨⭐ Travelled around 40 countries, including many in Eastern Europe. I also travelled 22 countries with my daughter. I’m passionate about meeting new people, discovering unique cultures, and creating meaningful connections wherever I go. I’ve spent the past few years balancing life as a digital nomad with managing properties and pets for families around the world. When I’m not traveling, I enjoy helping others gain confidence through creative projects like theater coaching and NLP. I’d love to share stories, learn about your experiences, and contribute positively to the time we spend together.
I like discussions, discovering other people culture, experiences and life, making people discover my culture, my life. I am quite committed to ecological transition, passionated about history and entrepreneurship!
ABOUT ME We are a gay married couple, having normal life (working, going out, having drink with friends, etc...). We really enjoy meeting people sharing our culture and exploring all the other one. Of course we're not representing anything but we're an exemple among many. We're doing naturism on the beach and we don't usually care at home which means we won't get naked arriving from work but we may easily wake up, passing from bathroom to bedroom and sometime breakfast or sun bath on the terrasse naked too if we fill confortable enough to keep our normal way of living home. (This is up to you) Franck is a wonderful cook, we've a nice BBQ and many friends you may meet along your stay. If your request is accepted we expect you to act as in your family, so stay free and don't feel you own anything to us and let's hope we'll find time to share things together :-) We're quite often outside (a bit less in winter) and love bars, restaurants, beach picnics and we will be delighted if you have time to join us in our activity. We've been huge travelers until the covid stopped us in our habits and we love our suspended garden ! Update : if you don't know gays or afraid, imagine we're a different kind of human and think because you're a male we're gonna fancy you or you have to be careful of your interactions (just in case we'd interpreting badly) then please don't request as this is insulting. Same if naturism is for you a sexual thing or disrespect of ourselves. PHILOSOPHY Having 30 different stamps on my passport within 10 years

Je vis entre Paris et Valencia (Espagne), et en ce moment je suis dans la région niçoise pour une mission de plusieurs mois à TV Monaco. J’adore rencontrer des gens et découvrir une ville à travers ceux qui y vivent plutôt qu’en simple touriste. Je suis facile à vivre, respectueux et autonome : je m’adapte au rythme de la maison et j’aime laisser un bon souvenir derrière moi. Je suis en couple et papa de deux garçons. Côté échange, je fais de la musique, j’aime partager mes voyages et donner un coup de main en cuisine. Je parle français, anglais et espagnol, et j’ai toujours de quoi alimenter une bonne discussion autour d’un café. Profil vérifié, et je transmets toujours mon numéro sans souci. Au plaisir de se croiser !
Hey, my name is Ilias. I was born and raised in Morocco, then moved to France for my studies. I started my career as a software engineer in Lille, and after that, I took a break to travel across Asia, discovering different cultures, ways of life, and perspectives. Today, I’m based in Antibes, where I’ve been living for the past three years. I really enjoy life on the French Riviera — snorkeling, stand‑up paddleboarding, swimming, and spending time by the sea are a big part of what makes me feel at home here. Travel has a special place in my life. I’m not just interested in famous landmarks or touristy experiences, but in real local life — taking chances, going off the beaten path, and experiencing places in a more authentic way. I’m a down‑to‑earth person, curious about almost anything, and I genuinely enjoy good conversations. I love meeting new people,listening to their stories, learning from their experiences, and finding common ground to build strong and meaningful friendships.

Sea and mountains view Swimming pool 9min by car to the center Public transport available but a bit longer I have my bedroom that I can give but I mostly give a very confortable sofa so I don’t have to change the sheets everyday !

I was born in Vietnam and grew up in France since i was 5 years old. Being a french citizen, i love "la cuisine", the wines and all the cheeses. I'm definitely a foodie and have a passion for cooking Recently, i've decided to move out (a bit) from my confort zone. I quit my beloved hometown, my friends, my job and moved to the south of France to rebuild a new life with my beloved wife. I live now in a little town on the seaside : Antibes is 15 min from Nice and 10 min from Cannes As i am newcomer in this part of France, i'll be a very bad guide to show you around. After +10 years, being an active CS member, i'm also getting old. Therefore I'm not anymore the party boy i used to be. Nowadays, I would rather enjoy quiet conversations while drinking wine and cooking. Oh !!! I LOVE SO MUCH COOKING ;) My personnality ? (Quite hard question) ; I'm a super optimistic, i want to see the life on its bright side. I'm not that much talkative, but i love the people who are. The reason why i love so much to host travelers and to meet new people is probably because spent a period of my 18-19's backpacking alone all around europe. Nowadays, it's complicate for me to do it again, but the call of the road still whistles in my mind... So if you think i'm your type of person and that we may get along pretty well, let contact me. It's always a great pleasure to meet a new fellow travelers. "Come as a stranger and leave as a friend" is a good mojo...Let's try to make it happens ;)
I am currently living in Antibes. I am a strategy consultant. Working in Sophia Antipolis close to Antibes An avid traveller and work remotely as well. I love to spend my time exploring new places, making friends. Sun, the beach and a GinTo makes my life complete!
