About Me

My girlfriend Marion and I are travelling around Europe and Asia, for the next 6 months. We are both from France but have been living in Montreal for the past 4 years. Marion works as a social worker, while I do home renovations, and specialize in ecological paints.

We have been together for 9 years now, and this trip is a dream come true!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We joined Couchsurfing because we really want to meet people and share their culture as we travel from Greece to Myanmar. We are interested in the human contact that travel allows and Couchsurfing is a great way to begin to understand how others live and allow us to question how we live. We also really cherish human exchanges, sharing food and a more deep integration that what hostels can allow.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music : Radiohead, La Femme, Beiru, Stupeflip and other rock, electro and hiphop

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We decided to pack up our lives in France to move permanently to Montréal 4 years ago.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach the process to make ecological paints and help restore your home using natural products that we can find. I can also do a little but of massonery.

Marion is a great French cook and would love to share her knowledge of French cusisine.

We both want to learn more english, learn to cook local dishes, learn local languages, history, dance, and culture. I am also interested in learning traditional construction techniques.

We hope to share life, laughs, food, good times, hikes, parties and all sorts of things!

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can share our travel experiences throughout various countries, our home cooking, lots of stories. We are also very good with our hands and would be happy to help out around our host's house, doing minor repairs, painting and cooking.
