Hola...hi...bonjour!

🏠 Mi casa es su casa
•My flat : not very center but is still Lyon / one room or my couch / take a look :
https://goo.gl/maps/pZk7aJU8wSCDXdeGA
• One secret : I live near to the "île Barbe", one of the best spots in the city and the best bakery in Lyon is just next to.
• Only one bathroom at home.
• You can take the bus and in 10 minutes (depending on traffic) you will arrive to the closest metro station.
• Not giving my keys during your stay.
• We're 2 at home : my husband Richard (french) and me.
• We speak french, english and Spanish.

😉 You and me
• Please send me your LinkedIn / Facebook or Instagram. Don't worry, I won't bother you or add you as a friend but I need to know who is sleeping at home.
• Who's travelling with you? Also write it down.
• Don't wait me for breakfast because I never take it. I practice intermittent fasting.
• I won't cook for you for one simple reason : Lyon has been named “The Gastronomic Capital of the World”. Taste it! Do yourself a favor and eat, eat, eat, eat.
