About Me

After discover the CS cummunity while running the word for 9 years between 2008 and 2017, mix between big adventures and working in hotels and resorts (among other things), it's now my turn to host !
Even if i keep traveling a bit, since the Covid19, I am back living in France, in my home town: La Ciotat.

I am really in love with my city and my region:
Provence and the Mediterranean coast!
I used to be an alternative city guide of 3 towns (La Ciotat, Marseille and Aix en Provence), so it is with great pleasure that I will make you discover or re-discover it!

Bike and Motorbikes are welcome ✌️
I have a safe garage in my building with my own bike and motorbikes.
You can of course use all the tools/oil/grease you need.

Petit rajout en français, pour les français.
Je sais que les hôtels sont chers en haute saison, que c'est compliqué de trouver un logement pour un stage de 2 mois, que l’essence pour un road trip en van aménagé bouffe déjà bien le budget vacances...
Mais couchsurfing n'est pas (seulement) un moyen de dormir gratuitement là où vous voulez.
Je me suis personnellement beaucoup investi dans cette communauté et je ne me suis jamais fais héberger en France.

Je ne suis pas pour autant fermé à l'idee de vous acceuillir, n'hesitez surtout pas à me contacter avec un concept/projet de voyage se mêlant un minimum à l’esprit couchsurfing (long voyage à pied, à vélo, en voilier, dans un esprit zéro empreinte, pour un projet huma/bénévole, un road trip moto vintage/enduro ...)
Merci de votre compréhension
