Share a friendly moment with Simone. You will discover her favorite places, as well as her daily life in Cannes. Although you don't know each other yet, you will be welcomed as friends. A memorable encounter for sure !
Even if each encounter is unique, Simone likes to take the visitors she welcomes to discover the nature on the heights of Cannes
"In the heights to the east of Cannes, enjoy a fulfilling moment, far from the bustle of the town, in order to discover the surrounding nature.
The path, sometimes hilly, allows us to discover squirrels or parrots between the eucalyptus and mimosas. Overlooking the sea, photographers will capture magnificent viewpoints over the water, the islands and the mountains, with the closest Alps sometimes snow-capped. This oasis of calm does not stop us from admiring a luxury and prestigious habitat that is more or less hidden in the trees that brings us to the history of Cannes."
Simone also likes the California neighborhood
"This walk in the California district is the chance for us to evoke the rich and famous inhabitants of Cannes which started to animate our town a century back and had already given it a multicultural and an international dimension".
By the way, what exactly are Greeters®?
It is a global community of inhabitants who voluntarily welcome anyone wishing to discover a territory from the point of view of a local.
Meeting a Greeter is the promise of a memorable moment with a loving, passionate volunteer and ambassador for their city or region. Greeters enjoy welcoming visitors as they would welcoming friends. They offer their time to discover the places they love, tell their story, their neighborhood or village and share their way of experiencing everyday life.
Don't be mistaken, the Greeter is not a professional guide! The places you will go through are only a pretext to meet and a way to better understand how local inhabitants live. Come alone or in a group of up to six people for a walk or even just for a chat over a drink.
If you believe that travel can be a vector of peace and better understanding between people, meeting a Greeter is for you ! Our community shares the idea that travelling can be a formidable opportunity for a real exchange between populations and visitors and that this should not be exclusively possible as an act of consumption. Do not look for a price, meeting a greeter is 100% free (yes, really !).
