About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live, live and live again

ABOUT ME

I would say that i'm an easy going and open minded person who enjoys meeting people. I'm more than crazy about travels, a passion that i share with my love for dances.
I did anthropology at university, the best studies ever for those who want to open their mind!!
Then i worked to be able to travel, I spend a year in south America where I met my husband who's from Chile. He's a traveller too, and more, street artist! Now we are travelling together to enjoy our nomad love..
And we got married in January 2017 in Chile!

PHILOSOPHY

The world to wich we belong is an amazing mixture of culture, values, colors, and knowledge. We all have to understand this,as citizen of this world, and we must forget about the border, who prevent us from meeting each other and accept us as we really are. Whatever they can say, they can think, humanity is wonderful, human being is beautiful, LET'S TRUST EACH OTHER!
