Couch Information


No couch currently available for surfing.

Couch picture

First of all, here are next events in my public CouchSurfing calendar, but don't forget that I can accept 2, and sometimes 3 or 4 couch surfers, so don't stop on my calendar:
(click on it for a more user-friendly view)

Click here to see a month view and more...


I live alone (well, not alone, with some CSers who are now friends), and there is often some friends (and CSers) coming at home.
I have 2 double beds, a sofa, an optional inflatable double mattress that we can put on the floor, a simple bed and a hammock. First floor is about 30m² with opened kitchen, bathroom+WC, and the living room in which there is the sofa and the hammock, and where we can put the inflatable mattress. Second floor is a big mezzanine of 15m², with my double bed, the other double bed and the simple one.
I don't have any pet.
I'm near the bus , the tram and the metro . See www.ratp.fr for more infos.
I'm working between 9am and 6pm from Monday to Friday, and after I can introduce you to some people.

SOME RULES :
- I'm working at home, as I work for CS, but it's not a reason to stay here all day on facebook or doing nothing all day, I'll get upset and maybe yell on ya. You normally come to visit, so go and visit!.
- Bring your sleeping-bag and towels, as there is a lot of CSers coming here, I'm not able to clean each day all linens and towels of course (if you can't, ask me in your request).
- Don't forget you're not at your place, so respect the material, and keep each stuff you use at least as clean as it was before
- Read all my profile correctly, especially this section (Couch Information), I've put a real-time scheduler image, I don't want you to make a request if I specify in the scheduler that I can't host more CS, or I'm away from home...
- If you're requesting for someone, or for you and some friends, give me their profile's link, or talk a little about them, telling especially their names, age and gender
- If you have a quite empty profile (I'm not waiting for a novel), you'll maybe don't have any answer or a quick message asking you to fill your profile before anything else
-
Your request's subject has to be like this: "!! CS REQUEST!! YYYY-MM-DD", where YYYY is the year, MM is the month number and DD is the day of the first night that you'll need a couch

Personal Description

I CAN'T HOST ANYMORE, SO STOP SENDING MESSAGES TO ASK FOR A COUCH PLEASE!


I DON'T HOST FOR ONLY ONE NIGHT
As I don't wanna just loan a bed, but I wanna share with you and learn a bit about you. I wanna remember you!
This is my mobile, but I won't answer SMS sorry: +336 -63-55-63-59
Paris time
Coming a weekend and wanna see not only Paris but country-side? join this meeting and inform me.
I'm not very talkative. But I know how to make noise if we need to party.
People I've met thought at first that I was a little crazy, but ended up liking this madness.
I like it when my friends or other people take some good times with me, even if I'm not for much.

How I Participate in CS

Code couch
I'm a member of the CS Tech Team and working full time for CS, so yeah, definitly, CS is kinda my life.

CouchSurfing Experience

Hey yeah... after hosting more than 100 CSers, I couch surfed myself for the first time in November 2008! Haha, great experience, I was in the 2nd French Ambassador's meeting in Nantes. I had a bedroom at my hosts' place! In my place I even don't have a bedroom, because it's an open space, so I was better than at home! Thanks Tiphaine & Seb ;-)
And my hosts (a couple) were so nice, and have the real CS spirit!

December 2008, trip in Argentina
December 2009, Santacon in Paris!


visited 14 states (6.22%)

Interests

I like hanging out with friends, watching movies in my sofa, eating good old French dishes, riding roller-blades, having discussions (not for too long either ), ...

Philosophy

Helping all people who could help you (or not) later, and who well understand the CouchSurfing concept.

Music, Movies, Books

Music: reggae, house/electronic, psychedelic, metal, blues and some rock, as you see I'm quite diversified in terms of music.
Movies: I'm used to sleep in front of them
Books: I'm used to sleep on them

Types of People I enjoy

Everybody who won't bother me!

Teach, Learn, Share

Almost all of you will help me to improve my English because, as you can read, I speak Frenglish, so to practice is the better way to learn.
What could I teach to you... that is a good question! I don't know, in most case I think I can help you to take some good times in Paris (or elsewhere), but it's not teaching...

One Amazing Thing I've Seen or Done

Subscribing on CouchSurfing!

Opinion on the CouchSurfing.org Project

It's a very nice concept, I never tried to search such a website, but when a friend spoke to me about it, I subscribed immediately as if it was something I was searching for a long time, and after visiting nearly each navigation module/page on it, I adopted it.

Locations Traveled

TRAVELED: Argentina, Belgium, Bulgaria, Costa Rica, England, Germany, Italy, Mexico, Netherlands, Romania, Spain, Turkey, United States
LIVED: France
WANTS TO GO: Canada, India


What do these numbers mean?

This summary is not a replacement for reading references; it's a quick summary to help you get started. At a glance, you can see how many references a member has, and how many of them are positive, neutral, and negative.

In the second line, you'll see how many references came from people who hosted this member, surfed with them, and traveled with them. These numbers won't always add up to the total: some references are not categorized, and some may be categorized as more than one thing.

When viewing this summary, don't jump to conclusions! Things that are negative for one person may be positive for another, and vice versa. It's important to read references carefully and evaluate what that information means to you.

Pierre m`envoyé le message 5 min après que j`ai déposé la demande sur Last minute couch et sauvé moi et mon amie d`une nuit sous le pont :)
Il reçoit les gens tout le temps mais ça veut dire qu`on devient des amis avec tous qui entrent dans sa maison et on s`amuse comme si on se connaissait depuis toujours (Je suis la vache qui tache sans taches..^^). Il était superaccueilant et grâce a lui on a passé 2 jours inoubliables a Paris!

I had heard that Pierre is an amazing host, and that there are always at least seven CouchSurfers in his small apartment. I was finally honored to be able to experience his hospitality for myself when he helped me out for the Paris CS conference. He helped us navigate the city, and even helped me give a presentation at a school so that we could use their hall, by helping set me up with everything technical that I needed. He is a lot of fun and a genius developer! Love you Pierre!

This guy *is* Mr CouchSurfing! One of the early developers and still works on the site, totally committed to the mission. All he asks of you is to not be disturbed when he is working. He rescued me when I had a problem in Paris, even though I had never couch surfed and had no references. It was a pleasure and a privilege to stay with him.

Pierre is a really cool dude. So chill, laid back, friendly and incredibly funny. Haha well he's hosted me twice on a last minute note and I really enjoy being at his place, listening to his awesome songs and chilling. Even when it was just a song of birds chirping, which helped everyone to sleep lol. Anyway, I'm sure I'm gonna see more of him while I'm here in Paris. Haha take care man, and see you soon! :) x

This guy is just crazy, but also caring. If he is not drunk, anyway. I mean, this guy just enjoys life and acts like a lunatic when he wants to. Is something to get used to but after that it's ok. Oh and make sure he goes to bed in a position that you want him in, because after he falls asleep it's almost impossible to wake him up. He's not responding to ANYthing. Not even if you try to move him yourself. An amazing ability, but kind of annoying at 4am when you want to finally crash on your bed, that he is occupying half as well because he fell asleep there. Oh well, good times.
