ABOUT ME

Hey! I'm Elodie and I'm French. I come from Lower Normandy, you know… the "cheese and Mont Saint Michel" land if you see what I mean! After living in Tours for my studies and traveking a bit (especially in Japan), I ended up in Paris, this beautiful city!

I think I’m a curious person, interested in anything I can learn (languages, drawing, art history) and trying to find a place in this strange world.

Benoît:
Hi Everyone ! I'm French, born with wine in Bordeaux. Living in France (extremelly unusual ! :D), Paris.

It's my 3rd year in Paris and my 4th apartement, I like to discover new places even when it's within the city.

Before Paris I had the chance to live in Japan (1 year and a half in Kyoto), studying and working a bit, and South Korea (Seoul).

Those "ancient" times where extremelly interesting, I could exchange almost everything with various people from around the world.

Today I live at the edge of metro line 1, and we would be very happy to welcome you and encourage you to visit our nice and sometimes arrogant city !

PHILOSOPHY

The best way to understand life is to experiment it.
