Dark tales of Lyon
Lyon, contrary to what many think, isn't just made of lights...Come and get lost in the dark legends which gave the city its devilish reputation. We’ll start out tour in the Saint George district, shuned even by tourists, where we’ll search for evil spirits. Then, we’ll cross the Saône River to get to the magnificent Celestins Theatre to listen to the story of a particular guest… We will go back to the Vieux-Lyon district to admire the Saint Jean Cathedral which hides secrets mostly unheared of. We will continue through the Rue du Boeuf, the most Michelin-starred of France, to uncover pagan rituals, and we will keep thrilling with stories of enigmatic water-diviners and beings from other worlds. Last but not leat, we’ll finish our tour on Terreaux Square, before the Palais des Beaux-Arts, rocked by the spectral voices of the dark nuns who gave the building a most sulphurous fame. NOTE: The tour is also suitable for children, the storytelling can be adapted to any type of audience. However, it is the parents' liability to judge of the sensibility of their children. Remember that we'll be talking about dark and evil stories. WARNING!! The tour is offered in French. Please write in a message that you want the tour to be conducted in English, and I will manage to do so. Regarding the current Covid-19 restrictions and the curfew, the tour cannot be conducted at night. Avoir high heels due to cobblestones.

Traditionnal French dinner at home
Hello, everybody! My experience will be about sharing a moment. What I would love to do is to invite you for a traditional French dinner. The same that I would do with my family or my friends. Eating in France is more than just food, it is a highly social event of joy and sharing. It takes a little time because it is required to chat for a little between each dish^^. Those moments will be great to share experiences about food, traditions, experiences, travels and more. I also love talking about my country, it's culture and history so I will be more than happy to share about that with you. First, we will have "apéro", which is just talking with a drink and some finger food but there is no proper dinner in France without the apero ahaha. After that we will get a little more serious with the entrée, the main dish and dessert. Of course all of that will be accompanied with French wine. Most dishes I will cook, I learned from my mother, so you can be sure it will be hearty and traditionnal . I will do my best to make you feel at home, and maybe for a moment, like you have been living here forever.
