About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to meet a lot of wonderful people from all around this little planet...

ABOUT ME

Wow! me?
I realize while I'm writing that I've never been alone in my everyday life ; my parents made me the nice surprise to have 4 others children after me, at first. At 15, I chose to leave in a boarding school, I discovered all the big questions of adult life with a big group of wonderful girls and boys. In summer I used to go 2 months as an aupair in Germany and England, to shake my little brain in progression.
When I got my high school diplom, a "preparatory class for literary studies" of the south of France made me the surprise to call me, so I moved there, in Avignon.
And for the last 3 years I lived in a big flat with 6 other students, that was one of the best experiences of my life ; I love to have a lot of different characters around me, make crazy plans each day... One of them had a snake, and if you opened the wrong drawer of the fridge, you discovered 50 little dead mice. Another one was always trying to make a painting of you, sleeping, cooking, laughing or crying, to keep the more she could the atmosphere of the house. There were also musicians, students in languages, literature, history, tourism...
Then I left a few months alone in the north of Morocco, to open a little bit my european mind ; I can't tell you what I received there. Maybe a big big wind in my head, which doesn't calm down. I came back a month in january, to say hello at uni and do my exams, but I didn't manage to settle more, so I found a job in London, with children.
But now, big deal... In october I found a flat in Marseille with a friend, and since this moment I try to write a paper on the way an old unknown book of Marivaux was illustrated at the XVIIIth century. For the moment, Marseille is so rich and full of surprises, I'm happy to stay here. But maybe... Guyana in September?..

PHILOSOPHY

(I have one of the best recipe of the lemon curd, super easy..) ;

deciding to book a plane for tomorrow, whereever ;

the way children talk about reality, without hang-ups ;

secondhand clothes ;

and cakes, cinema, theater, laughing for nothing with friends...
