About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To grow up (more & more) and be surprised by new people and new places!
ABOUT ME
We are a french couple and now live in Quebec city (QC, Canada). We love discover new people and countries through hosting people, surfing and traveling.
Delphine(31) is architect and I(28) work in IT. We really appreciate meeting people, learning new culture, improving our English and sharing some important moments in our life while traveling ;)
We lived in Paris many years, we really love our native country with many stuff to do, visit, drink, eat, etc. ;)
2 years ago we learned Spanish and we now can speak and understand easily Spanish people. In part thanks to CouchSurfing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
We received couchsurfers in Paris with very great moments in this amazing town. We shared cultures, foods, drinks, events of our country!
During our one-month-and-half road trip in Canada, we did surf with CS, amazing experiences!
Now by living in Quebec city we try to meet CS people during our visits and trips in Canada and USA.
