About Me

ABOUT US
We have energy and a passion to learn, to share. We like to enjoy the moment and have fun. We enjoy the outdoors and all many activities which we can do !

In fact, we love simply to laugh. Even if you don't speak the same mother tongue, it's a universal language no?

PHILOSOPHY

Take action in your own life, give freely. Thus life is pretty good.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We joined couchsurfing group during our last trip in Canada (2013) and we have got really positive feedbacks with hosts in New Zealand (Alex -Whangarei, Russel - Kerikeri...) we realised that it's the perfect way to share something with local people and know how they live.
:) we continue in this direction !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Her :
For my birthday (20 years old), my family gave me a parachute jump, which I had long dreamed. 40 seconds of free fall, an adrenaline rush, the sensation of flying like a bird.. A chance, and an intense feeling of freedom.

And I think about my current wondering trip on Oceania, a walk in the Grand Canyon in California, which offers a landscape of limitless depth ...

Him :
New Zealand trip! And I enjoyed the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, and surfing on the Taranaki region!
Those things which seemed incredible, like attending a Mass of Gospel in the Harlem neighborhood in New York on a Sunday morning,
Finland : skiing on frozen lake!

What I Can Share with Hosts

We can help for everything, we can cook meals from France, we can making jokes and have some stories to share :)

But more than that, we are able to adapt to the changes and easy going!
