into: It looks like my profile got entirely cancelled as I was uploading my new profile pictures of Nanni Moretti and the giant whale ... So I have to tick the boxes and fill in the blanks again. But I'm feeling like making complete sentences instead.

not into: I'm French. This statement is right in the good section. I'm not really into being French. I'm not into living in France either, mainly because it's pretty damn hard to avoid the French there. And the widely spread social malaise. We are such a hostile and close-minded people. I'm ashamed of seeing how badly we welcome and treat foreigners and tourists on our territory. I think most of the clichés about the French are not fiction and that what makes France famous all over the world unfortunately is. The whole thing about French gastronomy-fashion-romantic Paris is so overrated.

makes me happy: The only thing I love about my native country is the language. This and bread baguette that seems impossible to replicate anywhere else on this planet. I could kill for a freshly baked baguette with butter. Well, it's a bit exagerated to say I only love these two things of France, but nothing else springs to mind spontaneously at the moment.

makes me sad: So I grew tired of living in France and started travelling at the age of 18. My family has been so supportive, they've never tried to stop or over protect me. I'm very thankful to them for the freedom and trust they've never failed to give me. I don't know if I would be able to do the same if I had a daughter who wanted to spend all her time abroad and alone !

hobbies: My first long stay experience in a foreign country was Alicante in Spain. I spent three stressful but wonderful months by myself there in 2006. It seemed so long because I was so little.

5 things i can't live without: Then I've lived for almost a year near Birmingham, England. That was in 2008. It's been and still is my most beautiful experience abroad. I fell in love with England that year and I have been very melancholic since then. The grey, the green, the cold, the rain. My bicycle. I studied for a Cambridge exam for foreign English speakers and worked as a barmaid there.

vices: I graduated in International Relations, Foreign Languages and Translation in 2010, in France.

i spend most of my free time: In late 2010 I left for Rome, Italy. I am still living there. I got mad, I got sad, I got crushed. Now I am getting happy.

occupation: This year my occupations consist in living more in the moment, teaching French to my partner, taking care of an abandoned kitten, planning a two-week trip to Japan with my brother in May.

current crush: I may be going to Denmark in August to experience life in an ecovillage but I haven't made my decision yet. I also aspire to be a student in Environmental and Earth Sciences from September.
