About Me

I'm in my early thirties, I live in Paris. For a couple of years I use to share a flat with a friend, and we had 3 couches, so we hosted many people via Couchsurfing! The idea was to meet people and show them a good time around! The best places in Paris are not the most well known! Now I can't host people anymore, but i'm still willing to meet people around Paris and meet them in their home town :)

In my every day life i work as a researcher and a engineer, for an architectural company that build mostly train station, in France and abroad.

I love to travel, but the older I get, the more relax the holidays. Not like beach and farniente, but rather go more slowly, discover more about culture and people! When I was younger, I always wanted to visit everything, even if very quickly, but now I prefer to take my time and enjoy every place the time I want! I hate "big-organized-tours" as there is no freedom for a change of plans.

I traveled a lot with my family in Europe when I was young, often to Poland where I have some family. Later, during university, I went to live in Vietnam for 1 year, and I traveled a lot around (Thailand, Laos, Cambodia )

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

After hosting and meeting people in my hometown in a shared flat for a few years, I want to meet people while travelling!
