CURRENT MISSION

Wannabe traveler

ABOUT ME

I'm a French 29 year-old girl. I live in a small village, in the Lot-et-Garonne department, that not a lot of people know of. I love travels and I'd like to travel more. I also love reading (thrillers, crime novels, science-fiction, fantasy, comicbooks...for example), watching tv shows (same type as the books) or movies. I love learning useless stuff, and languages and when I travel to a country I try to learn words, like in Sweden where I learned basics like "Hej", "Tack", or "ost" (usefull word, I know...). I love English language ! I love food (chocolate is my first love) and... I don't know what else to say. I'm Gemini and left-handed, I'm not good at sports, I learned how to read and play music (flute), I went to music school for ten years (I have a certificate to prove it)... I'm not really good at talking about me, but feel free to ask anything !

PHILOSOPHY

I never really thought about that... I think I live to learn stuff, usefull AND useless (I remember the useless things more easily, though).

Music, Movies, and Books

Books : "When I was five I killed myself" by Howard Butten, "Invisible monsters" by Chuck Palanhiuk, "Girlfriend in a coma" by Douglas Coupland, "The Dead Heart" by Douglas Kennedy, Stephen King's novels, "Windows on the world" by Frédéric Beigbeder, Nick Hornby's novels, "Game of Thrones", Philip K. Dick, Isaac Asimov, "Extremely loud and incredibly close" by Jonathan Safran Foer... I'm surely forgetting to mention some of my favourites.
Movies : "Mysterious Skin", "Mean Creek", John Hughes's teen movies, "The Goonies", "Star Wars" (IV-V-VI !), "The Lord of the Ring", "Jack", Kevin Smith's movies, Judd Apatow's movies, "Hot Fuzz", "Shaun of the dead", zombie movies, horror movies, "Mean Girls" (yes !), Batman movies, superhero movies in general (but Batman is the best)... That should be enough for now.
Music : Sigur Ros, EZ3kiel, Mogwaï, Arcade Fire, Busdriver, Ayreon, Bonobo, Le Klub des Loosers, Amanda Palmer, Wax Tailor, Outkast, Fat Freedy's Drop... I have eclectic tastes and I'm REALLY not up to date with music (I discover bands years after their success, sometimes even after their split).
