Hi People !

I'm Maëlle officially and Lmä to intriguing 😁
I love mystery 😁

So my story here start after leaving my graphic designer job, since few years ago, I realized that I needed to learn more about permaculture, which is for me THE solution to all problems in the world (yeah, not less). And my second quest is to colored the world with my paintings and resolve this sunglasses syndrom.

So I felt like Frodon and took my swage (with a bit more stuff than him) and I quit my country (from 34 yo, it was time !) to discover the world basically...
I love socialize (could be quiet at the first time dépend the feeling, I need a bit time sometimes) and connect the people between them. I like so much find the key and open this shiny priceless jewellery's box hidden deep inside each other and find the most wizard and weird part into (I didn't say it was easy).

Sometimes I feel like an observator in this world and I like that, cause I can take a step back and listen better or just accept better some aspects life. That's why i'm à quiet person but i speak loud when I speak with my heart and I even could dance or sing a karaoke with madness.

I enjoy to travel with no come back date and so to take my time like I want. My purpose is to try to avoid flights cause I have this lush called "time" so why should I take a flight if i can be Jonathan Livingston Seagull 😁

Otherwise like a lot of people i believe in solidarity between humans, that's why i love couch surf 🏄💙💜💛💚💟

I let you discover the Bible of the travel (it's in French but fortunately Google can Translate for you) :
