About Me
ABOUT ME
I think I can say that I'm a laid-back person who enjoys life, travelling, meeting new people, good conversations and learning new things.
I love change, I hate status quo or that feeling you get when you're caught up in a routine. So I do everything to avoid it!
I am an artist, a singer, a dancer, a linguist, a globe-trotter.
I am Canadian, Cameroonian, Senegalese, Mexican, Brazilian...
I am honest and straight-forward, sometimes a little too much!
If I could, I would visit all countries in Latin America.
I love ice cream, good movies, napping, laughing, dancing, and that exciting feeling of being in a new place and not knowing exactly where I'm going.
I love sharing the gifts God gave me...
I love hugs!
I am Christian (Catholic) but I respect all philosophies and ways of life. I like to have good, respectful, conversations about that aspect.
I hate any kind of waste (time, food, money, clothes...) and love and admire any intiative including recycling and alternative lifestyle and travelling options, as opposed to the consumption world we live in, even though there's no getting around it!
PHILOSOPHY
CARPE DIEM (Seize the day... Life is too short!)
I believe that my word is one the most valuable things that I can give to someone, so when I do give it, I try my very best to honor it.

Life is an open book. I try to learn as much as I can from it and cherish the bad just as I cherish the good, because even the bad teaches you lessons.
