CURRENT MISSION

To discover my true purpose in this life.

ABOUT ME

I am currently doing my MA on Translation. 2nd year, and loving it! I lived for a year in France, and did some backpacking for the summer before returning home. Getting settled has got me a bit tied-up (travel-speaking), so I'm currently just kind of enjoying the adventures I hear from new people I get to know through time.

I decided to join the program because up 'til now the best traveling experiences i've had are when i'm with someone who actually belongs to the city i'm visiting. i would really like to broaden my backpacking experiences by meeting not just the city... but the people also, the ones who actually spice up and enlighten your trip.

Interests

Traveling and learning (FROM and BY others), vegging out and sleeping usually are my favorite sports (!!)... but I also enjoy having a nice chat with anybody, anywhere... watching a good movie... random jokes... a good laugh... a good drink/beer... coffee... and anything chocolate !!
