My name is Michel, I am a retired travel agent and I'd the chance to visit many places. In my time, there was no such thing as a free tour and I found this concept very interesting. We tested it in New York, Venice, and Ljubljana and the tours were amazing. I live in a really nice city really close to Paris, 10 minutes by train from Gare du Nord. Price ticket from Paris is 4.1 € one way including thé métro part inside Paris. My city is the only one, hoffering a lake, thermal baths, the only casino close to Paris, a racecourse, a blended architecture with very nice examples of art deco and art nouveau. The city is well known for Mistinguett and Amélie Poulain.
I decided to create tours to show my marvellous city, an original breath of fresh air close to Paris. I lived one year in the USA and 6 months in Australia, so I'm fluent in English and also in Spanish since my wife is Peruvian. I'm a fan of history, I like to meet people from everywhere and help them to have a nice time discovering my beloved city.
