Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
We are a couple (French/Mexican) just having a peaceful and meaningful life
ABOUT ME
We love traveling, languages, reading, nature, chatting, cooking, surfing the web, animals, technology, movies and everything that has to do with learning new things and having new experiences. We are quite easy-going and very calm, our hard-partying years are over but we love talking and discussing interesting topics while enjoying a beer. We love to laugh and in general we are normal, happy people.
PHILOSOPHY
We don't really have one but we believe in the importance of respecting each other's way of thinking. We hate injustice.
