About Me

CURRENT MISSION
As we adapt to our life in France, we travel as much as we can.

ABOUT ME
We are a Mexican-French couple living in Toulouse, France. We are 44 (Sylvain) and 48 (Yazmín) years old.

Sylvain: I am a language teacher and movie critic.

Yazmín: I studied communication and marketing, and I've worked as a designer of communication strategies, a teacher, civil servant and human rights.

We both try every day to enjoy our life and learn from every thing we hear, see, taste, smell, feel...

We love Toulouse and know the region very well. We would be happy to host, show you around and give you tips for your trip in France.

PHILOSOPHY

Peace and love.

Another world is possible...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We have received some CS at home, every time with good experience but each one really different. Some of our friends are CS and we have learned from them.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We think that CS is a really good way of travelling and meeting people. It's one of those things that makes this modern world different because it's based on trusting people.

If we can, we could help you during your stay in our place, like picking you up at the bus station and helping you moving in the city and even traveling with you to some beautiful places around our city.
