ABOUT ME
Originally from the UK. I've been living in this magnificent city of Lyon for 9 years.
I gave up a well paid career in marketing to open up a small Irish Pub in Lyon 1ere. Its been hard work but now its very vibrant especially at the weekends. I believe its a great place for visiting CSs to meet young locals, many of whom like to speak English. Our website is www.ogillspub.fr
In terms of who I am I can only describe myself as not religious, not a racist and hate all political parties.
I have a positive outlook on life and believe in keeping both my mind and body fit. Though I do tend to overdose frequently on beer :-)
My apartment is very centrally located just across the street from the Opera at Hotel de Ville.
PHILOSOPHY
A man is only really limited by the acceptance of his circumstance...
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
