About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling, discovering the world, and meeting people!

UPDATE
February 2024: we’re currently travelling in Guatemala and Florida the whole month. We would love to meet, have a drink, and stay with locals.

ABOUT US

We've been together for 22 years now. I'm 38 and Jeremie is 39.
We are curious, open minded, respectful, optimistic and smiling. We love having fun, traveling and exploring the world, meeting people and making new friends, photographing and discovering new things. We enjoy life!
We've started to travel in January 2014. Since then, we've been to many places, such as Singapore, Australia (where we traveled and worked for two years), New Zealand, Fiji, Japan, Southeast Asia, Taiwan, Europe, Canada, the US, Mexico, etc.

We live in the Tiny House we built ourselves in 2018, and we love traveling in our campervan!

We LOVE Couchsurfing! We truly think there is no better way to travel. We love meeting people, locals, get to know them, and share their life, their habits...

We don't like people who just talk about themselves, who think they know everything better than others, and who don't listen to other people. This is rude and selfish. Everybody has something to say and to share.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't dream your life, live your dreams.
Life is too short : do your best to make things happen !

You're not a stranger, just a friend we haven't met yet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We host and we surf as often as we can! Because we have been away a long time, not having our own home, we have been hosted more than we hosted, and we're very grateful for that.
And we leave a reference every time. This is part of the deal, right.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have been surfing many times and we have only hosted a couple of times (because we're permanent travelers). As soon as we have our own home, we'll give back to this awesome community!
Couchsurfing is the best thing ever. Every couchsurfing experience is unique and wonderful: we have spent amazing and memorable moments with fantastic people, who have become great friends now. We can't thank them enough for their warm welcome, their great generosity and their wonderful smile. Thanks to Couchsurfing, we know there are still many good people in this world!
We cannot wait to meet more amazing friends around the world!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We saw amazing things everywhere we went to.
In the United States: the Grand Canyon, the big sequoia trees, bears, Las Vegas... Holding a baby alligator, finding gold in California...

In Australia: feeding Cockatoos and kangaroos, cuddling a koala, surfing with dolphins. Flying over the Great Barrier Reef was breathtaking, learning to surf with a fantastic CS real surfer, scuba diving with turtles, squeezing grape with our bare feet to make wine, etc...

In New Zealand: swimming with Dusky Dolphins, one of the best experiences of our lives! Going on an island active volcano on a rough sea!

Riding an elephant in Thailand was amazing. They are so powerful and beautiful animals.

Learn to scuba-dive in Fiji was AWESOME!

So many more incredible experiences!

Teach, Learn, Share

We would be happy to teach you some French, and we would love if you could teach us a few words of your own language.
We love food (both cooking and eating), so we can share a meal or a drink together, and we could even cook for you!
We would be happy to share our travel experience and stories, and we would love to listen to yours.
