Jules MUZARD, 24 yo, student in sustainable development law (Paris), organizer of local alternative festivals (electro music), high level athlete (ultra distance cycling) and local official, based in Ferrières-en-Gâtinais (Loiret, 100km south of Paris).
I Speak French, English (bilingual) and German (basic).
I have traveled a lot internationally (lived in Southeast Asia, bikepacking Strasbourg-Budapest, adventure racing in Canada Quebec, road-trip in New Zealand, crossing the Pakistani Himalayas) then questioned my relationship to travel and to the adventure for essentially backpacking in France and Europe in recent years (regular outings in France, Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Balkans). After having done a lot of cycling with my family, I have recently been practicing long distance cycling (ultracycling) in competition (French Divide, Desertus bikus, Poco Loco, Nomadian Rhapsobike).
During my travels, I have been greatly gratified by people's hospitality and will be happy to help and meet other adventurers. I currently live with my father, who is also a traveling cyclist, in a warm and welcoming little house in Ferrières en Gâtinais.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Because it’s the most natural thing. As host to help people and have good times with them. As guest to travel light and make the most of my trips emerging into the local culture.

Music, Movies, and Books

All kinds of! Music, mostly electro but also indie and other ranges of rock. Films : "constructive" movie, or artistic ones. I hate Netflix and series though. Not much into books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Himalayan Silk Roads in North Pakistan but also crossing my department to visit my grandad.

Teach, Learn, Share

My knowledge and unthusiasm of France and alternative local culture, stories and perspectives. French and English language abroad. Giving a hand up to my hosts in their projects. Babysitting kids.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My cosy appartment : room in a medieval small city (Ferrières en Gâtinais) and even a proper floor for you, kitchen, perhaps dinner and my free time to show you around including great spots and interesting stories.
