ABOUT ME

French Canadian from English Canada living in French Canada.

I have a bachelor in Political Science and French litterature as well as a Masters in Porfessional translation (English to French).

I used to do some theatre in high school and university but I haven't done so in a long time.

I was involved in the Student movement in Quebec during the 2005 and 2012 strikes.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm pretty laid back and open to all sorts of people and experiences.
