CURRENT MISSION

Discovering new people, interests, cultures

ABOUT ME

My name is Julie, I am 24 years old.
I grew up in Brussels, Belgium, and was raised in a very multicultural environment, hence my interest in travelling and languages.
I have always loved music, and spend as much time as possible singing, playing guitar, piano,etc. Anything unusual and artistic interests me.
I studied Russian at University College London, and spent a year there (2013). I spent my first term in the therapeutic village of Kitezh, in the Kaluga region, Baryatino, 300km from Moscow.
I spent my second term in St Petersburg. I will be studying in Berlin in October 2015, and am looking for a room in a flat with some interesting people.

PHILOSOPHY
