Hei ! My name is Basile. I experienced couchsurfing for the first time in the summer 2023 through the Balkans and fell in love with this way of traveling ! I am currently traveling by bike - AGAIN in the Balkans - but this time i wanted to share these stories so i am trying to gather testimonies in order to share them in a french newspapper who accepted my project :). So if you are willing - or not - to take part in this project, that would be nice :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing to experience a new way of traveling ! A new way that gives greats opportunities to meet new people and learn even more about the country !! You can also travel by hosting guests and that is a super nice path as well !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had the chance to live one year in Norway when i was 17 !! It was a wonderful year i spent in a Norwegian school (near Oslo) and hosted by a super nice family with whom i created a really strong bond :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I will be super glad to cook some French traditional food (better than the Norwegian one ...). To help fixing things at your house (my dad teached me since i was a little boy). And i will super open to have nice conversations about anything !!
