I am coming from France. I have spent more than 8 years abroad over the last 11 years. I am a French lecturer by profession, with MA's in Teaching French as a Foreign Language and in Translation Studies. I have more than 8 years of experience in my primary field and a few years in translation/proofreading. I have also worked as a Cultural Events Coordinator for two years lately.

Interests: photography, literature, tourism
