Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I want to show the main interesting places in Lyon and the second day the beautiful villages of the Beaujolais region ; The tour in Lyon lasts 8 hours, walking and buses (good shoes necessary) ; not "rich" enough to offer restaurants i will be glad to make simple meals ,like buckwheat crêpes with cider of my native place: Bretagne(Brittany)! Just delicious... It means that i host people to be their guide, not interesting for me to remain at home alone! I am retired and enjoy spending my time with foreigners , and so praticing my loosing english ! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE i really enjoy keeping in touch with couchsurfers i meet.
Music, Movies, and Books
Historical movies and books Cinema: The english patient,Exodus,Pour sacha,Les citronniers, Munich,Shindler's list... I listen to the Beatles, goldman,shlomo artzi, 70's pop songs; I dislike rap and oriental music !...
One Amazing Thing I've Done
A few years as a kibbutz volunteer. The best time of my life (I miss so much all my "girl-friends" from Scandinavia and Holland!lol)
Teach, Learn, Share
I would like to meet and host "smiling" travellers from eastern Asia to know more about their way of life and culture.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Love of my region IMPORTANT INFORMATION: I can only host 1 person (or a couple in the same bed), so please do not ask me just before coming to accept somebody else!..... If you come to study for one year in an University; i would be glad to support you during this time and propose you some walks in the countryside and visits of nice villages (on the way back you could have a special experience: Learning how to shoot with an Airsoft carbine!) Everythink is free (home food, car expenses...) but do not forget to pay me back the bus tickets i bought for you (to visit Lyon we need perhaps a "24 hours" ticket costing 8 e) PLEASE: When we visit the country side, I drive for you, taking beautiful roads, so please do not keep your eyes down to your smartphone! thank you
