CURRENT MISSION

Being open-minded to the world in hosting people home, or travelling around different cultures. Sharing life experience, without borders.

ABOUT ME

we really like to talk with other people and also to listen to them which is a good way of learning.
we like to be outdoor doing sports or just reading under the sun with a cup of tea (or a beer for JC...)
we also like cooking and if you come at home we would be glad to cook for you.
HELENE : I'm a primary teacher and I love my job since children make me laugh (even if sometimes I feel like throttling them!). Thanks to them, each day is different, no routine!
JEAN-CHRISTOPHE : is a musician (drums, bass) and art therapist.
Finally, DIY! we are involved in a local group in which we buy food to local farmers. We try to avoid hypermarkets as often as possible.

PHILOSOPHY

Living our way, being creative, open-minded and responsible.
Respect EARTH, any living form, and being part of the nature.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We hosted only 3 times: we live in the countryside and not much requests...
For us, to be part of the couchsurfing community is a real involvement, it is a way of thinking and living. We are living in an individualistic world and thanks to couchsurfing, we can refuse this world and build something else : a world in which we share what we have with ohters, a world in which we are not afraid of the unknown and this is the world we believe in. That's why we participate in CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

the first couchsurfing experience: in Istanbul.
It was such a great experience that we will remember it for the rest of our life.
then in Stockholm, in the US, in France....
It changed our way of travelling : before CS, we were tourists, now, we travel and meet people !
