Hi ! I'm Pierre, born in Rennes (Brittany, France) and lived in Paris (where I sit right now) & Lyon.

I know of no place I don't wish to visit, no topic I don't have an interest in. I love to hear good stories. (My last Blablacar experiences have been talking about trucks and football with a middle-aged belgian man, followed by an urban planning/life conversation with a portugese architect.)

Have enjoyed CSurfing via my former roommate's account, had very good times hosting people from Canada, Italy, Pakistan and so on, much laughter and discoveries every time. Last time in Milan was magic.

I'm a rather sociable & talkative person, although very discreet when needed. When at home, I like to give friends or tourists a walk around the city, its history, architecture and cool places to hang at (while acting like a perfect French cliché).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and reach new places, the best way : with locals. I like to be a tourist in my own city and get a feel of how you live and love yours when I come by. Tell me about your culture, language, music, wine, humour and weird hobbies ! :)
