About Me

CURRENT MISSION

enjoy each day from now on!

ABOUT ME

We're a dynamic couple in our thirties: I'm an open-minded,trustworthy 35 year-old woman whose goal is to travel, meet new people, discover new cultures as often as possible.I'm an English teacher from primary school to secondary school. He's a 40 year-old computer instructor and likes to travel with me! and is learning English to communicate with as many people as possible. He is also a drummer ;-)

PHILOSOPHY

I think that we have to MAKE THE MOST of each day we live.
We have to be ambitious, not afraid of making hard choices.
I love to move, change, to set plans.
we have to be confident in our capacity to adapt ourselves and change things with which we're not satisfied.

Music, Movies, and Books

I've seen "The bucket list", I liked it very much and since I've been thinking of writing mine! all the things I would like to do, and there are numerous !!!!
I read a lot, I love music. I studied it when I was a teenager. I learnt to play the guitar, the piano, and to sing. I played in a jazz band, then a rock band and a funk band; at the moment I don't have a band.
We love going to concerts.
We love funk, jazz, pop, soul, classical music ... every style if it is GOOD music! Maceo Parker, Prince, Chaka Khan, Red Hot CHili Peppers, U2, Jamiroquai, Just Jack... and a lot more!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went paragliding over mountains in the south of France. It was magic!
I was on the back of a Luth turtle when I was 4 years old and swam with the turtles in French Guyana.
I sailed with dolphins.
