Hi guys,

I am now working in the nearby of Paris... I am working as an optical engineer after a few years of experience abroad, first in Germany, at different places and then in Spain for a while, living in Madrid. This is mainly in the context of my studies or my work then that I have been travelling around in Europe and a bit in North America.

During these last few years, I could visit a bit Germany around and learn a bit of German, and keep practising Spanish, English and.. French as well as I could meet people from a large variety of origins, especially in Jena which is a quite cosmopolitan city with a quarter of the population being students.

I like travelling, meeting by being hosted or by hosting myself, so if you pass by Paris, just let me know.

As I live at the south of Paris, you will be able to go around biking if you like as I live near a very large forest where Louis XIV and Louis XVI were used to hunt as a royal hobby... If you have some rest at my place one day, you will be able to relax quite well after your activities in Paris, as it is a very peaceful place in nature, in the park of a castle.

And if you already know Paris, come to see Versailles or Vaux-le-Vicomte castles ;the travel time to go there from my place is the same as the travel time to go to le Louvre or the Eiffel Tower !

See you maybe,
Cheers,
Maxime
