Countries I've Traveled To
Languages Spoken
French and English equally poorly.
Interests
Books you might find in my backpack
Music you might find me listening to while waiting for my plane
Most Memorable Travel Experience
I have been travelling since I was a toddler. Every trip is memorable. If I had to nail it down, I'd be torn between visiting the Acropolis, Pompei/Herculanum or discovering Maui.
Profile
Born in France, raised in Canada and, until I recently moved to France, lived in the US. I am at home everywhere, yet at home nowhere. I am a stranger where ever I go yet I relate to almost everyone. If I decided to let my hair grow back, it would be brown. Last time I looked, I noticed I have green eyes. I am friendly but I have very limited (as in none at all) patience for posers, mythomaniacs (pathological liars), and people bent on causing others pain just because they can. Then I stop being friendly and it's not usually good news. My favorite quotes are: "Only two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the former." Albert Einstein and "If you do not change directions, you may end up where you are headed." Lao-Tsu. I have learned over the recent past that I am honest and whole. I still have much to learn. In Popeye's wise words, "I yam what I yam". If you can figure it out, drop me a line and let me know...

Thanks Paul. I was in France 2 years ago and Lyon is the most beautiful place I've ever been! Even better than Paris and I love Paris. My husband is from Poyols. My son is really into skateboarding and I heard there's a great bowl in Marseille. But I think the skate team Cliche is based out of Lyon.
Well it's great to virtually meet ya. I sure hope we get to France soon. A+
