A former language teacher and now a happy freelance translator.
I lived in France and abroad for a while and I'm now back in my hometown Lyon. Blame the boomerang effect.
I have lots of free time to travel around, meet up with new people and connect, especially to play traditional Irish music. My aim in this life is to make you smile and set your foot tapping :-)
Oh and I'm a nature-lover!
