About Me

Hey!

I'm a friendly and open minded person who loves traveling and who is always seeking new adventures. I also love to learn new languages and get to know new cultures.
When abroad, my interests vary from outdoor activities (Hiking, biking, swimming... name it I love it!) to city exploring. I also love to try any type of food or drink that i've never had.

Interests

I'm into pretty much anything, especially having a good time and having a laugh
Love taking care of my garden, growing stuff
Languages! I'm currently working on my mandarin chinese, it's a big challenge.
Sports: tennis, skiing, hiking. Would like to do kitesurfing someday.
I did dancing, singing and acting in a musical once but I wasn't so good at it

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I love songs with a good beat, they give me energy and make me happy. On my phone there are many different types of music, ranging from russian rap to puerto rican bachata to bulgarian chalga

Movies: anything that has a great plot twist

Books: Love novels about big adventures, especially when they take place in past times. My favorite one is ''Léon l'Africain'' (in french) by Amin Maalouf.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taking chemical engineering classes (in mandarin) in Sichuan University, China

Biking from Chengdu to Urumqi (China) on my own. It took me 2 months and was very hard, both physically and mentally

I traveled a couple of times by myself (Panama, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan) and each time there were many challenges but I'm so happy I did it
