ABOUT ME
I am currently an intern in NYC, though not for long now. I will go back to France in june to fulfill my master in a school of political sciences (Sciences Po Toulouse).
I am a really friendly person, a real free spirit, as I have some identity-seraching issues (who doesn't really I am such a drama queen!).
More serisously, I attach a grand importance to friendship and find comfort in keeping relationships for years and years. And that says a lot about me.
I love travelling, obviously but less and less for touristic matters, which seem cold and premeditated and don't fulfill me as much as good encounters and great experiences.
Career plans, work as a music or event producer and participate in cultural diplomacy .
PHILOSOPHY
Ne pas compter/ Do not count.
Trying to understand how people think and love them for what they are.
I don't waste my time in details as long as things are done. I like to enjoy, powerful feelings and simple moments like a good conversation or a break under the sun or watching a special something. Enjoy is a word i appreciate because you have to enjoy this kind of moment that you know as unique. I am constantly nostalgic because of that, but i know also that to every good moment succeed another so there is no reason to cry in the ends.
A little phrase that can resume a part of my philosophy in spanish :
" La vida es letras que se mezclan, forman palabras o galimatias. La vida es una tombola." It means "Life is letters that melt, they form words or gibberish. Life is a Tombola"
Things that we do or not make out our lifes in some way we can't always understand.
