About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Living, sharing and laughing to the fullest !

ABOUT ME

I'm married. 2 daughters. I'm a very sociable, open-minded, easy going and energetic person. I love meeting people with this state of mind.
I love discovering new things and sharing with others. I love practising sport ( skiing, snowshoeing, hiking, tai chi, swimming, rafting...). I like listening to all sorts of music (jazz, rock, French singers like Benabart), gospel,...). I love cinema, meeting new people, listening to them and getting to understand them and their philosophy of life, I love nature, observing wildlife. I also enjoy gardening, cooking vegetables and making cakes(I'm no good at cooking meat because I very rarely eat some).
I like listening to jokes but I 'm no good at telling them !

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy, don't be too serious ! Share with others.
