I like to travel and meet people from other cultures. I'm used to travel for my work but on my own, it's something I want to explore. I am healthy fit and I like walking and discover the beauties of countries I did not have the opportunity to visit yet.

I am artistic, open-minded, easy-going and curious about how people live elsewhere.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because I am a lonely traveler, and it's a great way to have some company to have pleasant conversations. Also, because I am semi-retired, I cannot afford full hotel rates.

Interests

My interests are various: Music (I sing in a choir - mezzosoprano), I love to dance also. I appreciate seeing a good movie since I 've worked all my life in that domain. I also enjoy pictural arts or visiting a museum. And I like just to stroll on the street and take a coffee or a glass of wine on a terrace.
