DeskLodger of the Month - February 2026

Meet our February DeskLodger of the Month: Boris Drappier, founder of Rent Happily 🧡

With 15 years in the rental sector, Boris knows how quickly things can change - and why staying competitive means staying creative.

He’s also looking ahead to the next chapter, with plans to move into more consulting and advisory work.

DeskLodge plays a big part in his hybrid routine too, giving him a breath of fresh air, a change of scenery, and the chance to meet people outside his usual world.

What’s the name of your company?

Rent Happily

Why did you choose your role/industry?

15 years ago, there was a lot of room for making a difference in the lives of tenants, which is not true anymore.

What is the most surprising part of your job?

I must be very creative to remain competitive in a fast-changing environment.

What are your plans for your career path?

I want to do less hands-on work and more consulting and to take on some advisory roles.

How does DeskLodge help you do your job?

It gives me a breath of fresh air and a change of scenery, and I meet people unrelated to my work, which is great.

Are you remote, on-site or hybrid?

Hybrid
