About Me

ABOUT ME

My real name is Laura and you can pronounce it the way you prefer.
I am currently on a working holiday visa in New Zealand.
I can seem very calm and shy at first, but I am very open-minded and love to meet people from different parts of the world.

I grew up in the French countryside but I've been living in London for the last 8 years.

I like to dream, travel, read, dance and walk.

PHILOSOPHY

"That's not the years in your life that matters, but the life in your years."

And you have to doubt about everything, there is no truth, everybody has his own vision of things.
