My Name is Kate !

I think the best way to discover a country is through his people.
This is the only way to really understand the culture, the way of thinking and living around.
You have to learn about the history, and what is better than if it is tell by someone who has been part of it ?
I wanna discover counties and cities with locals at best or with you recommandations at least.
YOU know the bests places around, and I trust YOU :)

Who I am ?
Open-minded, talkative, curious about life and things I ignored, I think there is something to learn from everyone and every situation it can be good or bad but it will be a lesson :)
I'm trying to keep optimistic and to be aware of my chance to be alive and in a good health :)
I'm sarcastic and love to tease people but in a good intention that's my way :)

What I love ?
Photography first, I'm a people photographer but I don't want people to notice me, I want to capture the truth and for that I need to be discreet to really have the emotion :)
Reading, everyday every kind of literature, it's another way to open yourself to the world
Basketball, yes the old time with the big 3 ;)
Cooking, I'm a cook always ready to bake !

Also I'm not an hotel free of taxes so please at least do not copy paste your requests :)
This website is to discover people so in your request show me you read my profile ;)
