CURRENT MISSION

Exploring and learning is my mission in life; Meeting new people from everywhere brings both of them!

ABOUT ME

I was once told I was the perfect balance between the city and the country side (ok it was in french so Im not too sure how to translate this...). I believe Im the kind of girl who will find her way either in the silence of woods or in the noise and night live of big cities. I love life and try to enjoy every minutes of it. At the moment I live in a charming small town near the river, about an hour from Quebec city. Art and culture are the main attraction although the river itself makes it a very popular destination.

PHILOSOPHY

Si la vie est un grand voyage, alors il faut d'abord sortir de chez soi...moi-même

"Un fou qui pense qu'il est fou est pour cette raison même un sage. Le fou qui pense qu'il est un sage est appelé vraiment un fou."...Bouddha.....

"Pour qu'une chose soit intéressante, il suffit de la regarder longtemps."...Gustave Flaubert...
