CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am a 27 year old girl who loves to travel and discover new places, cultures and people. I enjoy snowboarding and wakeboarding. I just moved to Los Angeles as a teacher in a french school. I love it here and hopefully I meet more people from California. I'd love to meet outgoing people who are active. Hiking, diving, snowboarding.... so much to discover here!

PHILOSOPHY

A good traveler has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving -Lao Tzu

I read somewhere... how important it is in life not necessarily to be strong... but to feel strong.- Into the wild

Rather than love, than money, than faith, than fame, than fairness... give me truth. -Into the wild

Happiness only real when shared.-Into the wild

Interests

Just finished reading the book Wild. What a great story and can't wait to go see the movie. Reading the book Shantaram made me appreciate life a lot more. I now want to go to India pretty bad! I try to see the positive side of things (not always easy). I love my family and spending time with people who understand me. I truly want to make the big trip i am planning in July UNFORGETTABLE,

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

-My favorite trip was in Morroco. The people over there were welcoming , invited us to visit their houses and eat a meal with them.
-In 2009 i did humanitarian work in Mali. I stayed in the little village of Kéméni with a family for 75 days. I worked with a team and the women of the village on a micro credit program.
-My favorite city has to be Doolin in Ireland. Doolin in a very small village next to the famous cliffs (cliffs of moher)It was warm, beautiful sun and landscape. I had a really cool travel buddy that made the trip even more unforgetable!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a teacher but i love to learn new things. I think it is important to try something new every once in a while. This quote from the movie Into the wild (a great one by the way-you should definetly see it) says it all:
The core of mans' spirit comes from new experiences
