CURRENT MISSION

Preparing our round the world trip/ meet new people all around the world

ABOUT ME

Adrien and Julia, both 25 years old. French couple actually doing a round the world trip. We started in June 2011 and we'll be back home in june 2012! One year of holidays, one years of new cultures and new people to meet! How exciting !! We've enjoyed every single moment of our trip so far (the best and worst!) and we can probably say that we are "travel addict" now !!What esle can we say about us... We are an easy going couple. We love meeting new people, sharing a little bit of their life for a few days and stay in touch for years !! We love music, sports (espacially hiking, skiing...and football for Adrien ^^). We enjoy having a dring at night with friends, sharing a good meal, going to concerts...We've enjoyed all our CS experiences and we've met amazing people trough CS and now, we hope that it's always gonna be like that !!If you want to learn more about us, you can have a look on our website: www.onceuponatrip.fr (it's in french, but you can probably learn a lot of who we are even if you don't speak french!)P.S: As we are travelling right now and not having a house, we can't host people...but we'll be back in June 2012... ;)

PHILOSOPHY

We should be able to travel to enjoy our lifes instead of working to enjoy travelling...does that make any sense?!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Hosting people, having a drink ...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We've been using couchsurfing 3 times so far and it's been 3 amazing experiences! We've host once and we've been hosted twice and for all these experiences we've met great people! We enjoy cooking a french meal to our host/Couchsurfers and talking about everything around a good glass of wine/beer !!We can't wait to have other great experiences !!

Interests

Travelling is the best thing in the world !! You can meet new people, new cultures new ways of life! We should all take the time to see what the world has to offer !! We also love music: listenning to it really loud while walking in the street, going to concert...We like different kind of sports especially skiing and hiking (and football for Adrien...)We love food! That's another great point about travelling: you can discover a new way of cooking and enjoy different food than the one at home !! We also love cooking and learning how to !
