Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Now living in the South of Paris, a city called VANVES.
The center of VANVES looks life a French village : it is calm and beautiful, there's a good bakery, a traiteur .
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
A Budapest [2014], deux premières expériences comme couchsurfer : un excellent souvenir à cause de la disponibilité et de la gentillesse de mes hôtes.
J'ai accueilli plusieurs personnes géniales et de tous pays (Argentine, Allemagne, Moldavie,...) lorsque j'étais à Marseille et toujours d'excellents souvenirs !
En principe, je privilégie des invités venus de l'étranger - y compris francophone - pour découvrir d'autres pays que la France.
Had two wonderful experiences as a couchsurfer in Budapest. I was touched by the kindness and availability of my hosts.
Had also the opportunity to host quite a few people during my one year Marseille stay. Quite always good moments shared.
