About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Fix some smile

ABOUT ME

Since I am a child I had the chance to travel a lot with my parents. Those early 'backpacking' experiences brings me to choose History when i entered university. I spent one year in Montreal (Canada) in 2005-06 and one year in Lisbon (Portugal) for my studies. I finished my Master Degree and i want to become professor in Primary school.
Today I want to keep learning what life has to give, and share what I have done

PHILOSOPHY

'Always look on the bright side of life'

Interests

Human relationship. I always enjoy spending time with people because there is always something to learn or something to share.
Of course i love sport : hike, ski, basketball, volleyball, soccer, kung fu, squash, ultimate frisbee
I play guitare and sing in my spare time.
Sometimes i am not proud of being french but I love all the ritual we have about food : going to supermarket and decide the menu, cut the ingredients and cooking, being sit around a table with your friends and having stupid talks, finish your dinner with baguette+goat cheese+red wine!
