CURRENT MISSION

On the lookout for a place to rest my head before a flight back to the UK near Bordeaux Airport. It's just Christina this time, no Pierrick :-)

ABOUT US

I am a 30yr old female, sometimes travelling with my French partner Pierrick, 27yrs, who I met on my travels in Australia. We have been together almost 5 years and have lived, worked and travelled together since. We both have an avid passion for travel and living in new countries, my partner has lived in Africa for two years as well as all over France and worked in Australia and travelled some of Europe, Thailand, Bali, Kuala Lumpur, Singapore. He is from Paris and fluent in French and English. I have travelled Europe, the Indian Subcontinent, all of South East Asia and Australia/New Zealand.

I believe we are both super friendly and outgoing, full of adventure, kind and trusting. We love being independent but love having local guides too.

We like to live life adventurously, but also just like to chill. We are very laid back about most things, but are clean and punctual. Favourite things about travelling; Culture and FOOD!

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do, than by the ones you did do. Explore, Dream, Discover.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We are hoping to couchsurf to meet local people, become more accustomed to local culture and the way local people live their lives, and to see the 'real' side of the country. We also hope to make friends along the way and learn lots about the places we stay in, more than you would by staying in hotels or hostels. We would love to share stories, cooking, drinks, experiences and hobbies.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have couchsurfed in Auckland but not from this website, we have WWOOFed/HelpX'd around New Zealand (we have profiles on both websites), and we have worked as Managers in two Backpacker Hostels in New Zealand. We are looking for our first proper Couchsurfing experience. We would love it to be with you!

Interests

TRAVEL! We love travelling, meeting new people, learning languages, learning new things, socialising, just generally trying to do as much with life as possible. But there are also days when we pretty much don't want to do anything, we love chill time! Oh and we love FOOD!

Music, Movies, and Books

Everything! We love learning from these, whether it be from books, education, movies, music - everything has something to teach us!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteering with communities and elephants around Asia. Experiencing different cultures, and seeing some amazing sights along the way. Taking that first step onto a plane on my solo travels and never looking back! Meeting my boyfriend. Working as Managers in Backpacker Hostels!

Teach, Learn, Share

I think all of the above shows what we can teach others, learn from others and share with others!

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can offer knowledge of travel and experiences, I love to cook, Pierrick lives to chat, we both consider ourselves as good company, we have also worked as cleaners and from our WWOOFing experiences could even help out in any way around the house, garden, cleaning etc. We love a good clean!
