Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Couchsurfing is the best way to travel and discover the world: visiting a country without sharing and living with its inhabitants has quite no interest. I’m longing for meeting you in France, or where you live. If you want some calm moment in a beautiful rural area. Welcome ! I'll be show you around and give you some advice.

Le couchsurfing est le meilleur moyen de voyager et de découvrir le monde, car visiter un pays n’a d’intérêt que si on prend le temps de partager et de vivre avec ses habitants. J’attends de vous rencontrer, en France, ou chez vous. si vous avez envie d'un moment calme à la campagne. Bienvenue.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Since I've been hosted in august 2008 in the US, I regularly had surfers at home. It's always a pleasure to welcome people from all around the world. Curiously most of them are from north America... but be sure that I don't select and welcome everyone :)

Depuis que j'aie été reçu aux Etats-Unis en 2008, j'ai régulièrement accueilli des surfers chez moi. Et cela a été un véritable plaisir de rencontrer des jeunes et moins jeunes d'origine aussi diverses. Curieusement la plupart venaient d'Amérique du Nord, mais soyez sûrs qu'il ne s'agit pas d'une pré-sélection et que tout le monde est bienvenue.

Interests

I'm an "Urban", I love stroll in the streets, looking at the architecture, taking my time in museums, going to cultural/popular events, concerts. But I also like taking my time in the countryside, hiking, doing sports I usually don't practice. Also discover unusual places... even if I live now far from urbanity :-)
