If you know me, please feel free to write any comments that you want. Thanks! (Don't forget to say how long you have known me, in which country we met, your nationality, and anything else...)

Honest, careful, intentioned and faithful friendship are the best words to describe JP. To this, we can say that he is curious, cultured and Determined and that when he decided to do something, he will go to the end. Those who will have the chance to meet with him retain an excellent remembrance as it is endearing. Come back, we miss you! Honnête, attentif, intentionné et fidèle en amitié sont les meilleurs mots pour décrire JP. A cela, on peut dire qu’il est curieux, cultivé et déterminé et que lorsqu’il a décidé de faire quelque chose, il ira jusqu’au bout. Les personnes qui auront la chance de le rencontrer en garderont un excellent souvenir car il est attachant et émouvant. Reviens-nous vite, tu nous manques trop !

I met JP recently in a class we had taken together at Stanford. After a couple of sessions we became good friends. I was really impressed by his deep meticulous thinking and his capability of observing and providing valuable insight on any topics. I am honored to be a part of his great adventure to share his knowledge and to learn and discover America. He has a very gentle and humorous nature to win over and impress any body in matter of minutes. If you get an opportunity to spend some time with this guy.. my advice, dont miss it... I cannot find more words to describe him, he is J.P - Just Perfect :-).

J.P. the French guy...No lo conozco a mucho tiempo pero lo poco que tuve contacto me demostro ser un tipo muy amigable y con gran proyeccion de negocios..Lo conoci atravez de mi amigo Tiago y siempre es una alegeria verlo.. J.P. que Dios te proteja en tu proyecto de viaje, estoy seguro que tendras buenas cosas para contar y muchas fotos para mostrar..Te felicito por haber realizado tan buen trabajo en este tu projecto...Espero poder saber de todo en tu regreso.. Good luck friend Arturo. R.

Hey, JP. I'm so glad to be here in that wonderful moment, your birthday. I still remember when we've met for the first time. At that time we couldn't communicate each other. We became friends afterward. Nowadays we have been able to communicated each other almost all. I could learn a lot of things from you. I hope you have a good time in your trip. Best friend Hiro.

I met JP during my studies in the ESG (2003-2006), a business school in Paris. His generosity, his humanity and his love of the challenge pleased me at once. Very professional and dynamic, he knew how to tie up durable relations as much in his private life as professional. Finally, its kindness, his great sense of humour and its fidelity make that he is a friend on whom I can count.

Hey !!! Here’s Greg, some French guy who’s gonna describe you a bit of our worldwide famous JP, alias « La JPouille » for part of his friends. I met him a few years ago in our business school in Paris and what I would say firstly is that JP is an “out-of-any-rules” person. What I mean is that once you meet JP you’ll understand that his kindness and his know-how to live will put you through the charm of the legendary French Lover!! Actually, we have quite opposite personalities but I think what made us friends is his amazing tolerance and his respect to every kind of thought that is always appreciable. What about his future?? Well … if you choose to welcome him you might be part of it, but be sure he’s an eternal dreamer! Every time we phone each other he has a new ambition, or a new idea, his brain is like in constant ebullition so be careful ! So if you wanna share any kind of thing, JP is your man!! What I could also add if that JP is spontaneous and curious, so be prepare to answer his many questions . Another precision: do not ever, ever, accept to jog with him!!! His 2 meters long legs will discourage any runner ….especially at 5.00 a.m.!! To conclude, JP is really somebody you can rely on at every time but at least you must deserve his trust, what appears quite normal. Take care of yourself JP ! Greg.

It is always said that we can count on the fingers of a hand our true friends. For me, JP would represent my inch. It is a person who is very positive. I met JP during my studies, immediately we started to have fun together... Was it alcohol? It should be known that JP is a person who likes to share moments with his friends, he can amuse people in any circonstances and he always shares his good mood. I also had to know to this strange individual who already astonishes you by his tall size, on professional projects: It is from this point of view that JP is extraordinary, it is able to carry out projects has term successfully and he can especially carry out a team to the victory even if it is necessary to carry it on his shoulders. It is a strong guy! In any case, you can count on him anytime as a friend or as a team partner. To share moments or adventures with him will give you the opportunity to know more about yourself and the way you can face the world with a zen attitude.

Hola JP, Una cartita rapida para que sepas como te veo y te quiero, y sobre todo como te echos de menos, Un hombre alto, tan de talla como de corazon, con una filosofia de vida increible. Desde el primer dia 2006 en la ESG (escuela de negocios en Paris),sabia que tendremos algo de mas que los otros , y eso fue tan claro como mi novio ha sido celoso. Unos momentos "sin reloj" tomando café, y hablando de nuestros puntos de vista sobre temas de vida: la familia, el pasado, los estidios, el amor, la pareja...y aunque no teniamos la misma opinion, nos respectabamos, y haciamos lo mas importante escucharse y entenderse, y complejar nuestra cultura de ser humano; Una amistad sin limite, sabeis lo que es ??? (he dicho amistad para los tontos que hubieran podido imaginarse algo mas...) para que lo sepais teneis que conocer al "fénomeno JP", te echo tanto de menos JP, nunca olvidare esos momentos y espero que te cuidas, y que aprovechas de tu sueno "realista", muahhhhh Siempre tuya, Nanita

Hi everybody! Et bien sur hello JP! J'ai rencontré JP à l'école et depuis nous sommes restés en contact malgré les aléas de la vie. (au passage JP ca m'a fait bizarre de revoir certaines photos) Malgré son coté têtu, JP est un bon vivant, qui ne se prend pas la tête et vie sa vie comme il le sent au jour le jour, il sait s'amuser d'un rien et animera vos soirée :p Have fun JP and wish to see you soon!

I met J.P. through a friend about two months ago. He has shown himself to be one of the genuinely nicest, most easy going people I have met in a long time. He has a beautiful outlook on life and it's easy to sit down and talk to him for hours. To show you how much confidence I have that hosting him is destined to be a true pleasure for those who choose to welcome him into their home, I wrote to friends all around the country and urged them to host him. If you are able to, I do not think you would regret hosting him for one second on his exceptional trip around the U.S. Invite him into your home; show him what it means in your city to be an american!

It doesn’t took to long to realize that JP knows where he’s going, he’s prepared, have good ideas, work hard when needed, and – like me – need to give his best in everything he does (like planning a trip, for example). He doesn’t take action without thinking before and, which’s better, doesn’t think without taking action. Among other things, that’s why I’m glad to be his business partner developing our web design agency and launching a "start up". I’m even gladder to be his friend. He also uses to give his best when is only being a friend.

Jean-Philippe (JP) has been my student over the last few months in San Francisco. I really enjoy having him in my class because he is always an enthusiastic learner. He engages the other students in class with interesting stories, insights and thought-provoking discussions. Everyone loves his smile and sense of humor. JP is really interested in learning about the world and everyone that he meets along his path. I have enjoyed getting to know him and I am excited for his future travel plans. JP's enthusiasm, spirit and positive energy is highly contageous, so he leaves those around him in a brighter mood. I believe that JP will change the world and leave it a brighter place than he found it. JP will always be successful in life and I wish him the best as he travels around the world. JP, I wish you the best. Blessings always, Marla. :)

Hi JP, i hope you're fine in States and i thank you to take news of us. Just some words to talk about you, a sporty physique hiding a big heart. Always present for his family and friends, he finds the good words at the good moment, to resume, huge human qualities. Have a nice trip, Romain from France

Talking about JP is not so easy! He is my favorite male french friend, because he is not a typical man from France! I have never seen him without a beautiful smile or in a bad mood! Moreover, if I am upset, immediately he tries to make me feel better! I admire his enthusiasm and courage for this trip! Good luck JP! I am sure you will be successful in your long journey! Jamila

I met Jean-Phillipe in San Francisco 6 months ago. We were at the same English school and we hit it off straight away! Why?? Purely and simply because Jean-Phillipe is the kind of people who makes interesting any situation. Thank to his open-mind, his broad general knowledge and his nobility, meet Jean-Phillipe is always an unforgettable time – I’m absolutely sure, you’ll love him :)

It has been a pleasure and a privilege to know JP! JP has been studying at Intrax International Institute for the past 5 months. His studies included a program at Stanford University. I quickly discovered (and I must admit, became enamored with) JP’s friendly, charismatic, and engaging personality. Added to this, I am an admirer of his creativity and his entrepreneurial skills. JP gave a power point presentation to our proficient-level English classes on the development of a business plan. He was clear and informative. The highlight was the unveiling of his website, which demonstrated theories and tools in action. There was so much enthusiasm that we will all be following JP’s progress on his incredible trip! JP approaches life with zest and adventure! You will be touched by his spirit! Keep in touch, JP!

I've never house exchanged with JP but from knowing him 6 months ago and enjoying the Bay Area with him I can ensure that he's one of the nicest guys I've ever met: chill, polite and extremely interested in everyone's culture. Good luck on your journey JP. Gustavo

While we have not yet enjoyed the pleasure a home exchange with Jean-Philippe Devillers, he has been a guest in our home during our family Christmas gathering, and I have met with these times. We see him as a joyful person, full of curiosity, very intelligent, and trustworthy. When we return to better health, we look forward to a vacation exchange of our San Francisco home for his apartment in Nice.

I met jean-Philippe 7 years ago in England. Both of us were working as waiters in the same restaurant located in Winchester. We were young (and still we are), innocent and shared a common point of view that would strengthen our friendship along the years: l’amour des femmes. To make the matter worse, Jean-Philippe is French, as you know, which makes him a potential danger for the girls he comes into; so girls if you want a sound piece of advice: do not try to resist! If I had to describe Jean-Philippe in a few words I would say that he is the most sensitive and reliable person I know. Besides, he is always in a jovial mood so that you never get bored in his company. To this respect, there is little chance you manage to get him tired for Jean-Philippe is just untiring: he wants to see everything and he is capable to get an interest in quite anything. Actually, Jean-Philippe is a kind of post-modern intellectual who likes to analyse things and people. For a while, he even contemplated to becoming a psychologist but his taste for adventures and wild beautiful landscapes contributed to make him what he is today: a funny and touching humanist. So to conclude, having the opportunity to meet Jean-Philippe in person is a chance and a nightmare too. It’s a chance for you won’t ever meet again somebody speaking with so French an accent! Believe me, it’s the funniest thing I’ve ever heard in my life. For an American, I suppose it must even be weirder. Secondly, Jean-Philippe is a finest cook, a chef! He can do miracles with very simple ingredients. Spending an evening at home with Jean-Philippe is like dining in a 4 stars Parisian restaurant. At last Jean-Philippe is always a very polite, respectful and friendly guest. He is very refreshing and entertaining company. I’m sure you won’t regret it! Why having Jean-Philippe at home may be a nightmare? Let me tell you something before you accommodate him. Jean-Philippe is about three meters tall so that chances you find a bed big enough to put in his two meters tall legs are very very slim according to me. Secondly, Jean-Philippe (JP as close friends call him) has got all sorts of little funny ways among which this habit to be extremely polite when people just want he make himself comfortable. Last time he came over at home it was like “sorry Madame, will you mind if I may serve myself some water? Sorry mister, may I use the bathroom with your permission please? Oh I’m so sorry, I beg your pardon, I spilled a wine drop on the tablecloth, I won’t do it again...”. At last, as a result of his great kindness, you’re going to sadly miss him during weeks after his departure. Here we go, that’s all I have to say about Jean-Philippe even if I could say so much more. But it would require a bigger space and above all, I don’t want to spoil your own pleasure by telling everything before you meet him in person. Good luck JP.

First of all, I am glad to introduce Jean-Philippe to everyone, whatever there are american, french or any other culture. I have been in contact with him for many years, mainly during our school, here in Paris. Constantly, he keeps his joy and has an ability to interact with individuals through trust and friendship. He definitely is open minded and could be, as far as I am concerned, an example to follow. I am totally convinced that sharing time with him would not only offer you a home in France (and his car..), but also will contribute to your own personal development thanks to his positive way to live. Have fun JP!!
