Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I'm curious of life, of discovering new people, new countries, new way of life, by travelling or by welcome people at home! Every day life is to invent...I'm happy in my every day life, sharing little pleasures with friends or new people....
ABOUT ME
I'm fond of life!!! Every thing that positives the mind. ....I love tea, especially Earl Grey with brown suger and milk. In winter I like to stay in my Home Sweet home, walk in the snow with my dog, or skiing, in our middle mountains. I live alone with my 3 children since 4 years, they are 20, 16, and 9 years old. The big one is studiing lögopedia in Belgium. So remain the two others. In spring and summer we do much more activities outside. I love Thermalbaths, and there are in Germany which is not very far. We do somme tennis, some canoe, some horse riding, a lots of swimming in sommer. My little son likes fishing. We travel as much as we can, and often in east countries like Slovakei, Tcheck Republic, in Croatia, Montenegro, Bosnia. We went aswell to Spain, Portugal, Greece, Italy,Sardaigna,England, Ireland, Scottland...I would like to see all the world and one life is not enough!! We generally sleep in tents in summer or youth hostels in winter or camping-car. We don't like to fixe a programm, we discover and meet people in non-touristic places.We never stay more than four days in the same place. Life is marvellous to be lived!
PHILOSOPHY
I like to exhange my point of view on every kind of subject, I would like to contribute to a multicultural world without hate and wars. A world were: "make money" is not the only value. Help, share, give, exchange.....Be aware of our Planet and try to live in harmony with nature.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
For the moment I have none myself...But my daughter, who is 20 years old, told me about couchsurfing, because she went last year to study in Belgium, and she was hosted by two couchsurfers,and through these students she found her kot! And now she has friends in Belgium!
