We are a couple from France, traveling around the world for the experience of a life-time, starting in October 2016. I am half South African-half French, and Renaud is 100% French, born and bred in Grenoble, France, where we live now. We are both engineers and have travelled alot for work and holidays. We adapt well to new environments and are curious to meet different people and discover their culture and life-experiences! Back home, we enjoy meeting up with our friends, and taking advantage of the mountains, nights out and buzzing, alternative culture in Grenoble.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In view of our trip around the world, couchsurfing is the perfect solution to meet-up with locals, getting a taste of the culture and great travel tips, all while traveling on a budget!
We are also happy to host any fellow travellers in Grenoble, before our departure in October, if we are home from work!
