Nice, open-minded and helpful.

I have been living in Paris for last 2 years but I'm from the region around Bordeaux (I grew up in the countryside). I really enjoy nature and beautiful landscape.

Since I live now in my own flat, I have decided to accomodate people in Paris since January 2017. It's a nice way to get nice (but temporary !) flatmates and to meet new friends from all over the planet.

I like to meet new people, to read, to laugh, to discuss, to eat, to cook and to have fun. I really love to try new habits/food/alcohol. And to travel of course (I'm addicted) !

I always try to be polite and educated, as much as possible, even when I'm drunk... While traveling, I respect the place of my host. I expect the same when I accomodate people. I'm not always available due to my job but I will answer your requests.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I have always met people while travelling and I wish to continue. Sometimes they became closed friends. For a long time, I did not use CS but I have decided to change that.

If meeting local people and having an insider's vision of the city is for you as much important as sightseeing, we will probably have good connections.

If you are looking for seeing Paris in a different way, having nice talks, eating and drinking together, you should write me. I can guide you in Paris or give you also advices.

Interests

So much to discover... It's hard to summarize it.

I read a lot (on my bed, or anywhere) and listen rock music (and music in general). I interest a lot to History, arts, politics, rugby, and of course travels... I'm always curious and I love to meet new people while travelling. I really enjoy nature and to try new things (espacially food!).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, I drove a fishing boat. My uncle was a fisherman and took me with him a few times. At the moment, I had the impression to be a great sailor or a pirate...

Teach, Learn, Share

I wish to share and to know different cultures and visions of the world. Learning new languages while traveling would be perfect. And I can teach you some French!

I have a nice place in a well situated neighbourhood in Paris (15 min of Eiffel Tower by walk). You will sleep on a double sofa bed. I can have free time to visit with you.
