Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I work as a translater/interpreter (German/French) and I am also sophrologist.
ABOUT ME
I am married to a French man, François. We have two sons, Florian, born in 1988 and Yannick, born in 1990.
We live 35 km south-east of Paris (between Paris and Fontainebleau) in Corbeil-Essonnes.
When I was 18 I left my home in Germany to spend 1 year in Oxford/England for learning Englich, before going to Nice/France for learning French.
I had my children quite late (40 and 41 years) as I met my husband quite late.
I studied German in Nice, as well as graphology.
For professional reasons we had to move to a little place in the Vosges (80 km south of Nancy)where we spent 3 years, then back to the Côte d'Azur (to Grasse this time) for 2 years and finally to Ile de France, the Parisian area.
Here I work for the Court of Paris as translator /interpretor and I opened a sophrologie consulting room.
I am member of Greenpeace
I am small (1.51m), have a good contact to people, like meeting people of all sorts of countries, like exchange ideas and philosophical perceptions
PHILOSOPHY
being honest and friendly, help people to get along and to find their way in live. Accepting that people don't think the same way as I do.
My political preference is the ecological direction.
I belive in something I could call God, but I am not member of any church. Reiki fits me very well.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am quite a good cook
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
None for the moment. But my elder son uses coach-surfing quite often at the moment, as he is hithhiking around the world

I may use the coach surfing when I'll go to India, next year if I can do it.
Interests
My hobbies are the crop-circles, the Kogi-Indians, sophrology and Reiki, écology, psychology, cooking, hiking, contact with others, travelling, reading and writing, cinema... I am interested in languages, the Sumerian culture, the ecological progress etc.
