About Me
I am a French girl with a love for travelling - I ahve been around the world with my parents since I was three months old. Ever since, I ahve always been on the road and wanting to be on the road. I chose to study horses in the Netherlands and to use the opportunity my stidues offered to jump from country to counrty. Travelling taught me a lot about life and about myself, giving me a different look about life and cultures. It taught me to accept differences and to become different as well, in the sense that I took a little bit of all different cultures I met and made them my own. I met so many various people that brought me happiness, but also knowledge about their lives, their environement, people that taught me to smile, to take life as it is and to relax, that it makes me want to live with all these people, to travel around the world and give a little bit of myself in exchange of a little bit of others.
As for things I like, I love singing and playing the guitar. I love reading (moslty fantasy, but I enjoy good historical fictions and sometimes a nice thriller). I love being around horses and animals in general. I love being around people. I love food (I guess being French made me like that!). I love watching the stars at night, and the sun rise in the morning. I enjoy a good party with friends.
I think the most important thing that travelling taught me was to see the bright side of life and to always enjoy your day, no matter what happens.
