About

I am originally from France but left the country 25 years ago, and I am currently living in California. I am open minded, adaptable, empathic and compassionate. I love travelling and exploring different cultures. In the recent years, I was in Guatemala, different places in Mexico, and just returned from the Andes, Peru.

Le pouvoir de transformer la haine en amour afin que nous puissions vivre dans un monde meilleur pour tous.
If I were an animal, what would it be and why?
Je serais le jaguar pour sa force, sa bravoure, sa vision et sa royauté.
