ABOUT ME Very friendly, fun, easy to go with buddy. Love to meet tons of new people ! I was born in Grenoble, a French city surrounded by mountains, where I learned to ski, hike and enjoy nature. I started English at a very early age (5 yo) and travelled a lot since, improving it on the way. I grew up in Dijon, where I did my secondary school, did my A-levels in science. I then proceeded to literature studies for 2 years. I then entered the Burgundy School of Business and did an MA in Management, with a double diploma at Nottingham University (MA in Marketing). I worked in London (3years), Niort (near La Rochelle) 3 years, and I have know been living in Aix en Provence for 4 years. I will be quitting my job mid-november to visit the world for a year from the beginning of December.
