CURRENT MISSION

Making the most of our two weeks off in California this summer 2013

ABOUT ME

Hi guys !

I am an ex law student and legal expert in Competition Law which turned into a commercial real estate broker.

I grew up between French and Italian cultures and languages, moving from Paris to Luxemburg and Brussels during my childhood and teenage years.

This is maybe why I am am so fond of discovering new cultures by meeting local people and discovering their own country by sharing their experience of it. The best exemple of that type of trip was my one-year experience of studying and living in Salamanca, Spain: I became fluent in Spanish and met some of my best friends there !

I love reading classic novels and poetry in the languages I practice: Fitzgerald, Edith Wharton, Ellroy, Malaparte, D'Annunzio, Cervantès and of course my beloved Balzac and Dumas.

I've met my boyfriend Chris in 2008, and since then we still enjoy sharing our lifes together. He is a cost controller in a sustainable tropical timber-trade firm and we share our passion for arts, history and literature (Chris is a big fan of Russian classic novels !), travelling (Chris lived abroad in Australia and Papuasia for one year and makes now many business travels to Africa)and my grandma's Italian recipes that I love to cook !

So whenever there is an opportunity to do so, we jump in a plane and are always on the move !

But we also love having good fun with our friends and generally each week-end is another party !

PHILOSOPHY

I know that it is kind of a cliché, but: CARPE DIEM !
