Hi I’m Maël, a local host who loves the vibrant spirit of Toulouse! One of my favorite things about this city is the way everyone gathers by the river to watch the sunset - it creates such a warm sense of community. I also enjoy the buzz around local events, especially when the rugby team is playing, and I appreciate how safe and peaceful the streets feel, making it easy to enjoy the city at any time. I love meeting friends and deciding on the spot where to eat or explore and I’m particularly fond of the natural history museum and its garden. I know neighborhoods like Carmes, Saint-Michel, the city center, Saint-Cyprien and Cartoucherie inside out, and I’d be thrilled to share Toulouse’s best churches, Roman Gaul history, iconic bridges, and its lively pubs and restaurants with you in a fun, authentic way.
