About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To give our children the bite of the travel bug and of CouchSurfing

ABOUT ME

We are funny persons that really like to learn. Learn about cultures, habits, languages, etc. I play some instruments, like piano and guitar... Amelie is a really good cooker and she has great artistic talents (oil painting, knitting).

We met in couchsurfing chatroom. Than we met for real in Dijon, and get engaged 8 months later. Later, we got married in France and now have 2 little girls called Maëline and Noémie. The result from an unexpected CS meeting :)

Thank you to couchsurfing for all of this !!!

Teach, Learn, Share

Our experience with couchsurfing have shown to us that the most important thing is TO BE REAL, OPENMIND, SOCIABLE (at least a litte bit) and FLUENT IN ENGLISH... Having the sense of humour is also well appreciated.

Also, couchsurfing works on a basic principle that you can take exemple from the movie : PAY IT FORWARD. It's all about that !!
Don't bother with the money, but repay what you've taken by pushing the couchsurfing wheel a little bit further.
So if you have been hosted, HOST... and if you have host, don't be shy to use it in your journeys around the world...

TRY IT AND YOU'LL ENJOY FOR SURE...
