Hi, this is Anne-Gaelle.

I am french and I live near Lyon. Yes I support smelly cheese but don't hold it against me!
I am working in environmental planning, a job that I also did a few months in Devon, uk.
I like hiking the alpine mountains, ending with a swim in a lake when the weather is warm enough! And sometimes I just like turning to a couch potato reading a good book or watching an episode of a TV serie, my cat purrring on my knees...

I am pretty much easy-going and I strongly believe that a smile is always a good start anywhere, anytime !

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When travelling, I especially enjoy doing nice walks, hopefully with some wildlife observations, try the local food... and all that I can learn from local people. I am also very happy to share about my experiences and interests, and it's usually start with a french meal I can cook.
It is important for me not to feel only like a tourist but a citizen of the world!
