About Me

ABOUT ME

I'm very curious of people, cultures and ways of life but also curious of different places, scents and flavors !
I love people and nature. I'm very generous and gentle. My friends appreciate my everyday smile and my open-mind : )
I have a lot of energy, I like make many things and discover many other !
But in the same time, I like to take it easy ! reading quietly or looking at the open fire, listening sweet music !

I like to communicate (even if I doesn't speak very well foreign languages. I'm learning ^^) and to share things with people !

PHILOSOPHY

peace and love, obviously.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Many advices on some places you have to visit in Nantes and in the contryside.
We know a lot of winegrowers, some good traditional markets, good organic producers.
A very quite place, in a old house, not whit a super modern confort but with real human hospitality and warmth !
A good table with local and organic ingredients, good wine (organic and very local too, obviously !) and some dishes veggie, vegan or gluten free if you want : )
