About Me

Bonjour to you all!

I'm a French traveler, passionate about languages, social justice and marine animals.
Currently based in Paris, I'd love to meet you over a coffee, a beer or a walk.

I can guide you through the secret streets and gardens of Belleville (my lively and fascinating Parisian neighbourhood) We can also discover the alternative Paris together, hike in the woods, or bake some French delicacies!

PS : Please, mention the words "coconut crab" in your message, forme to be sure you've read my profile !
