Join Couchsurfing to see Marie and Olivier’s full profile.
Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
We traveled from Paris overland across Europe and Asia, all the way to Papua New Guinea and Australia, and back with the Trans-Siberian Railroad! We set up for a year, but ended up traveling for 27 months! No plane, just trains and buses!
We currently live in Paris but Olivier continues to travel a lot for his job as a tropical ecologist working on tropical forests.
ABOUT ME
Travelin', travelin', and travelin'! Discover the world, know it, love it, save it!
PHILOSOPHY
We don't travel because there's something to see, just to be there and see how people live. All places are interesting!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
So far we've been meeting people on the way in all the countries we've traveled, and now even more through Couchsurfing. Hopefully we can host back when we have a home of our own after this trip!
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
The first one was in Dushanbe, Tajikistan, through personal connections: "the house of love and happiness". Thank you so much Vero for the wonderful week!
And after that many other in Hong Kong, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore, Port Moresby, Cairns, Vladivostok...
