Hello, I'm 62 years old, I'm German and have been living in France for more than 30 years now.
I'm interested in all kind of things, it would be too long to list them up here - just look at my occupations, there you can get an idea.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I haven't received a guest up to today, and haven't surfed on any couch neither ... but I want to try, in the future.

I'd prefer to travel less but see more - and couch-surfing seems to be a good idea!

What I like best, what still, after so many years fascinates me is the Apocalypse Tapestry in the château of Angers;
