Overview
About Me
I’m currently back living with my parents for some time before I find a place in Paris. Hopefully I will be able to resume hosting in a few months!
French engineer living in Paris.
After 1 year studying in Atlanta, 5 weeks working on a farm in Alaska and 2 weeks roadtripping the West of the US, I got back from a massive trip across Asia from Singapore to Paris by train and a bit of hitchhiking where necessary.
I love climbing, hiking, and just about any outdoor fun. I'm always up for something new, even in the most precarious condition!😉 The more time I spend outdoor the happier I am.
I love off the beaten path destinations, connecting with locals and discovering their history and lifestyles. I'm also a big history/geography nerd and I'm interested in all you can imagine of, I love learning new stuff about anything! I can definitely show you unexpected hidden places in Paris.
Partying is definitely on the agenda too when the time comes!
I’m a foreign currency collector, if you have some spare change from your country I’d be happy to exchange it for euros!
You don’t need to bring any gift if I host you, but if you really want to, a local alcohol from your home would be cool!
Please read the "My Home" section before requesting any stay.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I’m on Couchsurfing to discover places through the eyes of those who live there and meeting people. It is truly the best way to discover new places!
