Hi!
My 11yo son is passionate about skate for years. He skates at EGP18 skatepark and other venues.
His little bro is fond of skate too. He has been a member of Paris skate culture team for more than 2 years.
We live in Paris nearby Eurostar station. We would like to get in touch with a family with a kid same age, same interest to organise exchange stay, discover other country and other spots.
Best regards
Florent

Hi Florent - welcome to the forum.
You might be better asking on FB I think as most people on here who have kids, have children a fair few years younger than your son.

He’s 6.
Id exchange him for a baguette at the moment.

I actually have an 11 year old daughter, and she was born in Paris (we used to live near Bastille). And I used to skate EGP18 for a couple of years, when it was first built. Funny old world.
We’re in Cornwall now. I wouldn’t recommend coming here for skate spots though, especially in winter!

Hi Florent,
I’ve seen your post which was 5 years ago so not sure your sons are still skating…
My son is a keen skater and loves skating in Paris. I’m looking for a family of skaters to host him for a few dyas over the school holidays and will be happy to host your son/s.
My son is 14 years old, very independent and knows paris well just not old enough to stay on his own 🙂
Please let me know if you’s like to chat more about it.
Best wishes
Keren
