ABOUT ME
Where to start?!! Too much to say, not enough space !
To make it short, I am an easy-going person who enjoys simple things in life: watching sunsets, exploring new places, trying new things, cooking for friends, meeting new people... and most importantly having fun in what I do!
I grew up in France but have always been attracted by the unknown! As soon as the opportunities arised, my backpack was ready !
Almost 2 years ago, I left my job in London to go and explore the world, see how people live elsewhere and what makes them happy, what brings them together.
Today I can say it was the best decision ever, life-changing !
PHILOSOPHY
Live your dreams, don't dream about your life!
Why would you spend time thinking about all the amazing things you could instead of spending time actually doing these thing ??

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I volunteering with a cooperative of mayan women in Guatemala, it truly changed my point of view about life...
I am lucky to take time off to see world and saw amazing places like Macchu Pichu, Uyuni salt flats, Tikal ruins, Uluru in Australia...watched the most amazing sunsets in Costa Rica...
Teach, Learn, Share
My friends say I am a good cook :) When travelling I love learning about local food and love for people to show me their traditionnal meals.
Why not teach some French or English !
