CURRENT STATUS

At the heart of our one year trip around the world. Our plan for 2018 (and for all our travelling around) is simple: meeting people, discovering new countries, cultures and have fun!

Here is our blog if you fancy having a glance at our experience! http://thegreatchickensproject.com/en/

ABOUT US

When we visit a country we are interesting in meeting local people and in discovering their way of life, customs, cooking and traditions.
We have lived abroad a couple of years, and would like to keep discovering people from all around the world in Toulouse. We are together for 4 years and definitely have travelling in common.

We are non-smoker and have no pet.

As host, we enjoy to share about our city, good places to eat and drink.

We would like to be sure that you read our profile before you send us a couch request. So, could you please mention your favourite dish in your request (otherwise we will not accept you ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

We always have something to learn from the other.
Travelling is a good way to open its mind. And life is too short to spend it all over in the same and unique place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We like the idea; it's a good way to meet people and learn faster about the culture of a country/region.
Each time someone host us, we try on our side to host someone in our place.

However, it is not so easy to "couchsurf", especially when you are a couple like us. It's much easier for young and pretty girls!
We were never disappointed with our couchsurfing experiences and we really hope we will be able to host you well to share a nice piece of life together around a drink or a nice dinner.

Hope to see you soon!

Interests

Here is a short description of ourselves!

+++AUDREY+++
- My personality traits: all over the world and forever: clumsy, organized, in love, unable of not having the wanderlust, temperamental, sensitive, food lover.

- My childhood dream: build bridges all over the world, well, it’s a not really going to happen so at least I will cross them travelling!

- My expectations over this travelling experience: discover the world, allow myself to let go and try to slow down a bit on to-do-lists, taste as much local gastronomy as possible fine gourmet that I am!

- My guilty pleasures: eat, drink, eat, drink, eat, drink (responsibly of course mom!), and travel (that’s good, you’ll tell me!).

+++BENJAMIN+++
- My personality traits: a whimsical strand, the eye often sparkling and always ready to make people laugh. It offsets my perfectionist delusions and my teasing habits.

- My childhood dream: small, I dreamed of having a motorcycle and a very beautiful woman. Mixed result; I sold my motorcycle to finance this trip but it will be with a stunning woman.

- My expectations over this travelling experience: meet Denis Brogniart in Koh Lanta and beat him on the post game. If this is not happening, I will already be satisfied to discover cultures and places sometimes at odds with what makes my daily today, to take a step back on the small bothers.

- My guilty pleasures: the sausage, but I doubt to find out of the french territory.
