About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Staying alive!

ABOUT ME

JiBé : I'm a design teacher. I'm interested in politics and clowning. I also like to do conceptual arts, human beat box and relax in nature.

Stine : I work in a school library as a science information teacher. Playing brazilian drums (samba) with my band is one of my favorite hobbies. I'm interested in producing my own everyday life materials like shampoo, soap or washing powder. If you have any knowledge or recipe, I will be glad to share !

PHILOSOPHY

Trying to stay the happiest people in the world!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We've just moved in a bigger flat, we can now host people.

We've been hosted many times in many areas of the world. It has always been wonderful experiences. So it's time for us to host as warmly as we've been hosted. We were not very active on CS, we started the hospitality experience on another website : hospitality club. Now we chose to join CS to extende the opportunities to meet people.

If you are interested in a round in Paris, visiting museums and having a drink, feel free to contact us...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We're having our first experiences on Couchsurfing but we've used another website to hostpeople and being hosted as well. We've been hosted in Amsterdam, Seoul, Singapore, Accra, New Delhi... and we loved this way of travelling and meeting people!

Interests

Travelling a lot, going to museums, being open minded and as curious as possible!
We are interested in all kind of art, and we try to be artists as well (brazilian drums, human beat box, land art, design...). We enjoy litterature and try to read English.

Music, Movies, and Books

We are both very curious, so we listen to many styles of music and enjoy going to the movies.

My favorite novels are : Middlesex, the book thief, A hundred years of solitude, His Dark Materials, and many others but I can't remember their titles.

There's a nice art movies cinema close to the house, with VO movies you may be interested in watching.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We stayed 2 weeks in a small community in the ghanean country side and we enjoyed sharing their everyday life, including farming and cooking, which are so far away from our own experience of cooking and working.

We also performed a human beat box show in Malaysia, in public area.
