About Me

PLEASE NOTE I LIVE IN YATE, NOT BRISTOL BEFORE SENDING A REQUEST.
Yate is a little town on the outskirts of Bristol and public transports are not always the best so you might want to consider how you will get here before sending a request. It might be more suited for people driving/cycling or those happy to travel 30-60min to visit Bristol city centre.

ABOUT ME
I was born raised in France, but I've lived in the UK for 10 years now.
I live close to Bristol and the Cotswolds with my wife, 2 boys and our cat Leo. Family life has kept me quite busy in recent years so I've not had the chance to use CouchSurfing much, but I'm hoping we'll be in a better position soon! :) I'd love to host people again so our kids grow up learning from people and cultures across the globe!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting people of all ages and backgrounds, and it's led me to do a lot of CouchSurfing and hitchhiking.

I have had the pleasure to welcome people when I lived in France, Reunion and England, and I've stayed with a lot of people mainly in France, Belgium and the UK. Lots of CS events as well which are always good fun!

Interests

I love playing with my kids, listening to music, workout in my garage, going out for walks in the countryside, kicking back and having a couple of beers on a weekend, sharing good food with friends, playing video games, and learning about science and technology.

Before the kids me and my wife used to enjoy travelling, bouldering, playing pool, etc.
