LOOKING FOR A SURROGATE 🙂
Hi — We are Jo & Tom from Paris, France!
Over the past year, we were fortunate to build a meaningful connection with a surrogate for several months. Unfortunately, we recently learned that this journey will not continue. This news has been very painful for us. However, it has also strengthened our bond and reinforced, even more, our desire to have a child.
Clinic: VRC (Dr Victory)
Embryos: 14 PGS tested
Our couple nickname is the “TOUEX” (a playful way of saying “YOU” in French).
Jocelyn is 33 years old. He was born and raised in Nantes, on the west coast of France, and now lives in Paris. He works as a Director at DIOR in the prestigious boutique on Avenue Montaigne. He has a creative soul and loves painting and Pilates.
Tom is 34 years old. He was born and raised in Lyon, a city famous for its gastronomy, and he is now a lawyer specializing in Intellectual Property Law.
We met 7 years ago in an old-fashioned bar in the east of Paris — a place neither of us used to go to. A mutual friend introduced us… and fun fact: his name was also Jocelyn, which is quite rare in France. From the very first moment, something felt obvious between us. We fell in love instantly and quickly became inseparable.
After going through the Covid period together in Jocelyn’s small apartment for two years, we decided to take a new step. For the past three years, we have been living in a larger apartment that we bought in Montmartre, Paris — a place that truly feels like home.
We share a deep love for spending time with our families, traveling, indoor cycling, and enjoying life with our friends. But more than anything, we share the same dream: becoming parents. We have even started preparing for this new chapter by beginning work on what will become our child’s bedroom — a project that already means so much to us.
Today, we feel ready — more than ever — to grow our family and to give all the love we have to a child.
Tom & Jo
