About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Help my kid to discover the world, host people from everywhere is a great opening.

ABOUT ME

I CAN ONLY ACCEPT ONE GUEST AT A TIME!

I've now been living in Bergen, Norway, since 2004.
I'm fond of this country that I know from north to south, and share my passion for this land with french speaking tourists each summer. As a guide I can answer to all your questions about this lovely country.

I planned to travel as much as I can when I had maternity leave (10 months in Norway...). This blog made me want to do it with my baby: http://travelogue.travelvice.com/bulgaria/backpacking-with-a-baby-while-couchsurfing-eastern-europe/
I had my first experience in Barcelona. It was a great success :)

PHILOSOPHY

''If we admit that human life can be ruled by reason, then all possibility of life is destroyed.''

"Engage. Luck is no longer an option"

"Life is what happens when you're making other plans."

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The last thing was flying by helicopter above the Hardangerfjord. I've seen all the beauty Norway has to show, that's an old dream which came true. I've experienced many times the tunnels and caverns of the unofficial Catacombs of Paris.
