About Me

We are a French couple traveling around the world since septembre 2020. We’ve been through so many amazing experiences in one year and we do love meet people of every country to discover their cultures, their stories, learn about so many différents things.

We used to do a lot of Couchsurfing in the past 10 years on our own but since the plateforme evolved and we are travelling together we had to create a new account few weeks ago. So we don't have references yet but we can assure you that we are nice and clean travellers ;)

ANTOINE :
I'm a 31 yo man who discovered travel 10 years ago by travelling by myself with my backpack for a year in Oceania. This experience was mindblowing and I still see it like it was my second birth. Since, I never stopped travelling solo until I met my girlfriend Marie, who is now travelling with me.
We are currently doing a two years trip around the world and after almost one year (Sept 2021), we saw so many things, met so many wonderful people coming from everywhere and we are still expecting to meet new friends in the year to come.

Countries visited so far as a backpacker :

Europe : Ireland, Northern Ireland Norway, Sweden, Finland, Italy, Greece, Portugal, England, Germany, Poland, Slovenia, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Croatia
Africa : Ethiopia, Tanzania, Namibia, South Africa
Asia : Japan

MARIE :

I'm a 30 yo woman who loves travelling. I had the chance to travel a lot in Europe since I'm a child, and I'm now discovering parts of the world in this amazing world trip we began 1 year ago. During my past travels I did a lot of couchsurfing (In New Zealand, Slovenia, Austria, Germany and Italy) and I always loved these experiences because for me, sharing moments with local people is the best way to discover a country, the culture and create great memories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We're on Couchsurfing because it's a good way for us to meet and socialize with locals all around the world in order to understand as much as we can their culture, language, history, food,...
People from this community are passionated about travelling and showing the beautiful aspects of their country to dreamers like us, and it's all that matters in this crazy world we are living in.
