Marion : I live with my boyfriend in Hilden, its very close to Düsseldorf ( and Cologne ). After 10 years working, i´ve started to study again, sociology.
Olivier : the boyfriend ;-) French, already lived in Ireland and Spain and now in Germany
We : just bought a small house and we renovate it to be able to host couchsurfers in a near future. We have a small dog at home but it will stay in Germany if we have to fly to an other country.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Marion & Olivier : We like to visit new countries and couchsurfing is the best way to learn different people from all over the world…. it is also cheaper for a student ^^ I am really interested in knowing new people and their way of living. We want to visit cities on an other way, with insiders advises.

We´ve stayed with a super nice host in London, but he´s no longer registered here.
We also offered our couch for one night and have had a good experience.

Interests

Marion : she loves her dog and animals in general, riding, reading and make long walks in the nature, she loves the 50s and 60s (clothes, music, decoration...) and books..

Olivier : I love our dog too and my ferret ;-)I like to cook, play football, visit monuments and make long walks with Marion and the dog. And I like to search for old treasures with my metal detector :-) I still searching the big one ;-) I am really interested in history. And I love to learn foreign langages.

We: we like to try new food, we love wine and naturally to meet new people from all other the world.
