About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Planning my next big trip : Australia and Asia !

ABOUT ME

Since I finished my history and International Relation degree, I love talking about boring things such as History, Philosophy, politic, etc...

This makes me a very talkative person, always looking for something new to learn, in a word : i'm very open mined.

Currently doing ERASMUS in Romania i'm enjoying the traditional and culture and ... parties !

More seriously, I love to taste, hear, feel, smell and look, enjoying these little part of happiness hidden just in front of us.

Teach, Learn, Share

As a french... I can teach you how to cook, or make you discover new taste, the french kitchen. I use to make my friends discover my culture, which I'm very proud of, especially food and French of course :)I would be really greatful if you coud teach me your own language, or at least make me improve the one I already know.
