Overview
About Me
Hello !
ABOUT ME (the profile photos are from about 2015)
We are a bilingual family with 4 (grown-up / teenage) children.
We enjoy talking and gentle walking.
We love learning about other cultures and people, places and languages.
We have busy schedules during the week in term-time but at weekends and during school holidays we are more free to show visitors round and so on.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Happily hosting quite regularly, travelling to surf a bit too when we can...
Please try to give us at least 3 days' notice before you plan to visit, if possible.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
As a family of six it has not always been easy to find hosts when we have travelled... (some short stays in Switzerland and France...) but most recently we were hosted in Sundsvall which meant we could visit that part of northern Sweden, which was beautiful.
Interests
Cooking and being creative in the kitchen (e.g. making yogurt or baking bread) and joking, cycling not too strenuously, enjoying the garden, spending time with the kids, gentle walks in the countryside, seeing long-lost and newer friends, reading French literature and more recent political comment ... Recently I tried sailing and it blew me away.
