Hi Everyone, hope you're doing well !

I’m Thibault, 25, coming from Brittany, West coast of France. Freshly graduated from La Rochelle Business school, I am now coming to Amsterdam to work. Before that, I used to live in Paris.

I am a good flat mate, always here for a good laugh and respect carefully the rules of the house in terms of household tasks. I’m generally pretty chilled, I do some sport in my free time and I love to cook as well so we will have the occasion to share meals together if you are interested in French cuisine. At weekends I either go out or just chill with friends in a bar, or go to check out new places!

Anyway, if any of that sounds good then feel free to send me a message and it would be great to meet! I will be in training from May 13 to June 9 in Amsterdam to become a professional bartender.

Best regards,

Thibault Le Meur

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing might be for me the perfect occasion to get to know people in the wonderful city of Amsterdam and could be a good introduction to the city even if I have visited it a few times already.

Also, I want to settle and get a job in Adam's. I need to be already living in Amsterdam because recruiters or owners prefererably choose local people. To be local , you need to rent a room obviously which I intend to do. But the landlord requires often the viewing of the room which is totally understandable. So I would need couple of days at someone's place when I finish my training to become a bartender early June to view some places and to make a choice for the housing. That's why I am relying on you, dear Couchsurfing community !
