I am a retired woman who has been living in Marseilles since 1974
I was born in Paris and I lived in Paris for 24 years?
I loved speak english,
I have practiced Tai Chi Chuan for 6 years (Stevanovitch Method) and I like very much, It gives me serenity as a way to find the true nature of “self”, open, happy and in love with life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'll plan to travel in London or Amsterdam alone. A friend of mine travelled around the world and told me he had very good relationships during his trip with hosts receiving him by Couchsurfing. So, I want to meet local people to speak and improve my english and also to have different points of view to exchange ideas and way of life.

I was traveling very often, but alway in organized tours never alone.

I've just travelled alone in New York, and I loved it.

I would like meet people as I am, not to young (sorry, I don't want to go to disco or something like that) I want visit cities, museum, and so on.
