About Me

Hello

I like sharing experiences with travellers, meeting people and exchange life stories.

My hope is to bring a bit of fun, kindness and relaxed vibes to people I encounter.

I've hosted a few people back in the day and I particularly enjoy meeting new people from all over the world and making them feel comfortable. I am at the moment looking for a new flat so I can't accomodate you now but should be able to in the months to come.

As a guest I've had amazing experiences with very kind and interesting people.. I'm grateful and respectful wherever I go.

Hope you are well out there,

Valérie
