About me.... Well. I'm a student who loves languages, photography, music and gaming.
French is my mother tongue, and I taught myself English. I studied German and Spanish at school. I took a few Chinese lessons, but most of it came through talking to Chinese friends. I then taught myself the rest. That was Mandarin, I'm now moving onto Cantonese. I then taught myself Japanese from scratch. I also learnt Esperanto, which had proved useful in learning other languages - that, for instance, clarified the use of the nominative and accusative cases in German and Polish. Languages are a great challenge, and are ultimately about people. I enjoy talking to people about tons of things, and that's made even easier when you talk to them in their first language. Oh and as such I am a lover of words and take great care over my spelling, punctuation and grammar ^^
Photography is one of my favorite past-times; you can check out my Flickr gallery here. Enjoy :)
Being an only child, I needed something to do when at home by myself. I started gaming - first got a Game Boy Advance with F-Zero GP Legend and Kirby and the Amazing Mirror - both great games - then got a GameCube with Zelda: The Wind Waker, then got Tales of Symphonia, and off I went with RPGs :) I used to write reviews in French, they can be found here. I'm not quite sure what my very favorite RPG is. I loved Zelda: The Wind Waker, Tales of Symphonia, and Final Fantasy XII... Probably ToS, just about. All three are incredible games though! I also really liked Tales of the Abyss, NieR, Wild ARMs 5, and Crisis Core: FFVII.
This blog is kinda like a diary to me - I write how I feel on a day-to-day basis. Enjoy :)
