ABOUT ME

I was born in North-East of France, in Lorraine. It's an old industrial country of coal extraction, not far from Germany. I guess that this country had a strong influence on me and on my attraction for landscapes and traveling. Then I moved away, in Burgundy, East of France,in the city. Since then I move regularly : at 16 years old I lived half year in Germany (Heidelberg), then I moved South, to Lyon, in order to study (i studied German Language and now I m finishing my phd in French Literature&Language). Meanwhile I lived half year in Italy, Piemonte. Next step is Montpellier, South of France. I love languages, spoken or read, seeing the (physic or literary) world and remember every time I come in a new place that I am no one and no thing.
