What can I say about me ... I grew up in the center of France between Chartres and Orleans, then in Tahiti in French Polynesia. I lived in Pau for 12 years and I enjoyed the south of France, the mountain, the sea, the food ...
Now I live in Lille. I really like this city and the area.
I'm easygoing I think, open minded, I like the calm of nature, the speed in big cities, a little bit of everything ...
I can be pleased with a few, like a nice conversation and a good glass of wine for example.
I like hiking, photography and cooking (and many other things !). You can check my website where you can find some pictures I took and some recepies : www.maryo-emmanuel.net

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is a good way to meet all kinds of people and discover other cultures ... Yes I know, it's kind of a cliché, but hey, it's true ;-)

Interests

I like sport (practicing and watching on TV), music (I try to learn playing ukulele and piano, but it's quite difficult and I have no much time, or I spend my time in other stuff should I say ...), cinema, cooking, photography, motorcycling, hiking, cycling, skydiving ...
