  Description

  Hi! I’m Tess from Columbus Ohio USA. I live over half the year in Neffies, a beautiful French village in the Occitanie. I am a English teacher, a cook and own a small rental property on the ground floor of my home.I am passionate about guests and meeting new people. I can accept couples or singles. Eclectic and a bit unconventional describes me, so I can get along with anyone who is open-minded and loves to learn. During high season, the apartment will not be available. I have a guest bedroom with a separate private bathroom (note: the washer/dryer is located in a separate room at the back of the guest bathroom). I own a small car but insurance allows only the driver and ONE passenger. If you don't have a car, I can take you sightseeing at least once a week and also take you to the grocery store and on other errands along with me. I can only have one passenger in my car.

  Echange culturel et opportunités d'apprendre

  I am extremely knowledgeable on the history of the region and very familiar with local flea and food markets. In short, I am an outstanding guide, full of ideas no matter your interests. I am a cook, so cooking together in my large, open kitchen is definitely something that can happen if you would like to learn about the cuisine of the Languedoc. I speak French level B2, enough to communicate. Improving is a big goal!
