About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To practice German and meet new people.

ABOUT ME

I live in Montreal for the past 13 years. I love this city because it allows me to live a hectic life, meet people from all backgrounds and quench my thirst for culture and art. I am an open-minded woman and have a lot of energy. I enjoy meeting new people, doing original activities. I'm passionate about (too) many things. I love music, it's all my life!!

PHILOSOPHY

Life has no remote... get up and change it yourself!
