About Me

After a one-year trip around the world, we went back to France and lived in Basque country. But the travel called us again, and we decided to travel through Europe this summer, starting in Slovenia our trip.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is for me one of the best way to meet people and discover countries, cultures and local specialities. I have already hosted one man who became my friend, and was hosted by brazilian guys I hope to see again. Recently, I tried CS in France, it was a great meeting once again!

Interests

We love nature and outdoor activites, like hiking and travelling by bike. We crossed the Pyrénées mountains in France to go to Andalusia, and make a 2-weeks trip by bike to discover the South-West of France.

We like cooking and to try new recipes. We can cook French or Asian food, and we are keen on discovering new stuff to feed ourselves.

We are also interested in learning about languages and cultures. Curious, we take a lot of pleasure to meet new people to open our mind by exchanging about their point of view and way of thinking.

What I Can Share with Hosts

When we will get our own flat/house, we hope to host people and offer them a couch (a bed or a sofa), and typical French food for dinner and/or breakfast according to our availability. We will be happy to make you discover our city too, but we need to find it before (that's why we are travelling :-))
