About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Traveling is knowledge you cannot find in books

ABOUT ME

I am French but I am more of a world traveler at heart. I went to school for theatre directing and translating. I have found myself teaching quite a bit these past few years (different theatre courses, French, English). Ideally, I'll keep on traveling and living/working abroad for as long as possible. I have lived most of 2008-2013 in the US (in Indiana). I spent 3 months in New Zealand and cannot wait to go back next year. After living just outside London for a while, I have recently moved to Spain and I am looking forward to this new adventure.

And I'm a hobbit - minus the hairy feet.

PHILOSOPHY

It is no bad thing to celebrate a simple life -- JRR Tolkien

Music, Movies, and Books

Folk, Folk, Folk. And many other things.

Books: I'm a Nerdastic Tolkienite.

Teach, Learn, Share

I believe in the three inner pillars to happiness:
Self-growth / Relationships / Helping the community
All of these are best experienced when traveling in my opinion.
