In my spare time, I enjoy baking sweet treats, but more recently I have been dabbling in making savoury pastries 🥐 I love travelling and my dream is to go scuba diving in the Great Barrier Reef! 🐠 I also have a cat named Nimki and I love watching funny cat videos, if that counts as a hobby? 😹

@Sophia I grew up on the coast so like everyone else spent a lot of the time outdoors on or in the water, so it was natural for me to try new things and meet new people along the way who share the same interest.
So a few snap shots of a few hobbies along the way.
This was a new friend and his daughter who stayed with me and we went kayak camping, launching from my back yard, and paddled out to an island camping on the beach and finding very old sharks teeth.
My friend Helen in the pic usually wanted me to go with them when planning for challenging open ocean expeditions as I could assist in rescue people.
My first trip cross county when I was 18 I took along a windsurfer. In my element while camping with my friends family in Maryland. But I went out so far into the ocean without a lifejacket that the lifeguards told me I couldn't go out anymore, which happened again in California.
But I mostly enjoy paddle boarding now as it's so convenient and I like the workout.
These actually don't seem like hobbies as all. Just something to do and I'm so used to living on the coast that it seems the same as driving or walking, and its also a more urban area so the only way to get out into nature is on the water.
I love going to the mountains that are close by and campgrounds. For this trip I noticed a lake on the map and had my sea kayak with me. I asked if there was anywhere to ride a mountain bike and the host told me the campground was one of the most popular trails in the entire US. Didn't disappoint! Hence the small tent as we also go kayak camping so everything fits in the hatches.
Those are a few hobbies. I love reading and more recently cooking. This is a pic of some Indian food I cooked while on this camping trip. Not bad.
Before covid used to go to a lot of vegan potlucks. We had a great little group who did fun stuff for a while but life is always moving on and adapting, trying new things.
I'd like to travel more and visit places like India, Tibet, and many more places but in the meantime got a new Kindle so I'm enjoying reading more. I also plan to have more a of theme with any future listings and be in a place during the summers where the sun isn't as strong, and I love cooler climates anyway.
Guest sometime ask about alligators. This means they are considering sneaking a dog next time. Only one person got killed by one in our state, a few years ago, she wanted to take a selfie with a monster one out at a gated community. The person she was visiting told her not to that she had seen that gator grab a deer at that exact spot on the bank but the lady decided she wanted a pic touching it. But most people are so afraid of wildlife that is no threat at all, I suppose its no great surprise not everyone is compatible. That's why I'm looking forward to someday promoting more of things I like. A lot of guest also want to see a gator while they visit. 
Wanted add I felt very sorry for the lady who got killed by the alligator, but you see people on youtube who want to touch a bison for a selfie and end up getting trampled all the time. My last guest also asked if there were any alligators in the marsh out back, and said they thought they heard one, which they didn't as there aren't any, but I knew they were up so something sneaky. After check out I found cigarette butts in the trash bin outside. So they were worried about some alligator and even imagine they heard one, but still smoking cigarettes. It's amazing how detached people are, which is why I want to start promoting more things I like and care about.
Also in the pic at the vegan potluck I made the cheesecake in the back.
Don't have a pic of that but here is some super healthy blueberry and peach muffins and baba ganoush.
Hi to you all,
It's a pleasure to join your wonderful community!
My name is Thierry. I've been an Airbnb host for just over a year and I'm happy to be superhost and recently, coup de coeur.
I live in Aix-les-Bains, between French Alps and lakes. I welcome travelers from all over the world to my home.
Passionate about gastronomy since childhood, I took advantage of the confinements to obtain my cookery diploma.
Driven by a solid Mediterranean family culinary culture, I have developed my own cuisine, creative and balanced, between classic, contemporary and fusion inspirations.
As a multi-recidivist entrepreneur, this is another arrow in my atypical quiver 😉
I like to innovate, write, compose and imagine stories... to offer original experiences and new encounters. For the past 3 years, I've been organizing a gourmet rendez-vous, "les bistrologiales". These “Pay What You Want” evenings take place in my home, and are attended by guests who don't know what they're going to eat, or with whom. Dinners between friends who don't yet know each other.
I'm now preparing my next entrepreneurial venture, a cultural and eco-responsible inn that I'd like to anchor in the heart of the historic Loire Valley region.
