About Me

ABOUT ME

I just moved out West after living out East for a while.

I am from France but have been living abroad since 2008, starting with Taiwan, the UK and then China for two years. I just moved to the US and got married after spending 6 months backpacking around South East Asia. But I'm not ready to settle just yet!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I provide a bedroom or couch whenever I can.
I have surfed several times and love joining local gathering. I have met great people through couchsurfing.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I discovered CS through a friend and tried it for the first time in Taiwan. The CS community is quite active over there and so friendly!
I then surfed a few couches in New Zealand, Malaysia,the US, Taiwan, China while traveling on my own. Great experiences!
Since then I have hosted in China and joined weekly meetings.
While I first started living abroad, I still received CS request in France and my parents hosted couch surfers several times.
