About Me

We are a couple living in the suburb of Paris; we have 2 daughters (twins).
We're used travelling sometimes in our country, sometimes further, and once or twice a year aboard.
We're both non-smokers.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Increase the community.
We already hosted surfers and enjoyed that, we surfed during our road trip in West coast in US and appreciated the great hospitality of our hosts.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We hosted few CSs when living in Paris area; we gave advices for the city tour and shared some moments of our lives like our drama exhibition. We made a break hosting CSs because we now have 2 babies and relocated to Upper Normandy.
We travelled through US west coast and were hosted in San Francisco and LA and enjoyed the experience. In LA, our host must go to see his family in San Francisco for an emergency and, instead of canceling; he left us his keys and apartment...that was really unbelievable!
We are now planning to visit NYC and Washington and would love to share CSs hospitality! Couchsurfing is not only having a place to stay for free, it's sharing a piece of somebody's life, another culture, another way of thinking....it is a way of diving of the spirit of the country you are visiting! This is definitely a priceless experience!
