I am an open-minded and cheerful person. I live in a nice area by the lake of Geneva, not far from the famous vineyards of Lavaux (Unesco world heritage ) and the beautiful Swiss mountains.
I still have my grown-up daughter at home (27 years old) and am very happy about it !

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

This site is a great way to meet nice and interesting persons who think that sharing is the most enjoyable thing to do. It is so nice to exchange our experiences so that we can constantly improve ourselves. I like meeting people and listening to their stories. I also like to discover cities through the eyes of a local.

I am happy to be on Couchsurfing to meet nice people who wish to exchange and to introduce them to the culture and beauty of Swizerland.

Travels bring joy and openness !

During the summer, I enjoy outdoors activities like for example hiking, biking, swimming and sailing.
I also like travelling, photography, music, meeting new people, having multi-cultural conversations, etc.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

A wonderful polar expedition in Svalbard.
Seeing leopards in Namibia, it is so rare to get to see them, it was amazing !
Swimming among the stingrays in the crystal clear waters of the Maldives.
Sailing at night across the English Channel between tankers and cruise ships...
Having been hosted all over south-east Asia 30 years ago although there was no web and no couchsurfing site at that time.

教，学，和分享

I like to share travel stories and life experiences. I also share with pleasure my house which has a nice view on the Geneva lake. I would be happy to share a meal with you and if I have time, to take you for a tour and show you nice spots in my area.
When I am abroad, I love to learn something from my host, for example how to cook traditional food or do things with and for my hosts. If I can be useful, I am happy to help !

Since I receive a lot of couch-requests, you will have a better chance to receive a "Yes" if you show me that you have taken the time to read my profile, by writing the word sunshine in your message.

Comme je reçois beaucoup de demandes d'hébergement, tu auras plus de chance de recevoir un Oui si tu me montres que tu as pris le temps de lire mon profil en incluant le mot soleil dans ton message.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I can share my passion for cooking, travelling and languages. I can teach you some French, English, German and a little bit of Chinese. I can tell you about my travels and about the Swiss culture and traditions.
