Description

I'm a 25-year-old French woman living in Paris. I work in commerce and have just finished my studies. Unfortunately, with COVID, I didn't have the opportunity to go away during my studies.
I've always dreamt of going to an English-speaking country to improve my English. Ireland has always attracted me with its vast green landscapes full of history.
My second passion is horse-riding, which I've been doing since I was 10. I had to take a break during my studies for financial reasons, but I was able to take it up again last year. I'm now a leisure rider but I've already taken part in a few competitions.
I'm determined, motivated and very curious! I love discovering new things and when I embark on a project, I always put my heart into it.
I'm an honest, serious and friendly person who you can count on.
But above all, and since I was very young, I've loved animals. I'm now the proud owner of a cat and my greatest dream is to one day own my own horse.
Coming from a family of 6 children where I'm the second, I get on very well with children and with all types of personalities.

More details about my language interests
I already have a good level of English, having completed my 4th and 5th years of higher education in English. However, I'm still shy about expressing myself orally in English, so I'd like to do an exchange in an English-speaking country to consolidate my communication skills in English. My mother tongue is French, so I have an accent in that language. I'm looking for caring people who won't make fun of me and who have the patience to express themselves clearly in English. I can teach French without difficulty. As my partner is Italian, I have had the opportunity to help him and some of his Italian friends consolidate their level of French.

More details about your skills

I have a degree in commerce, and more specifically in management and sales. This has enabled me to acquire the autonomy and responsibility needed for all life's tasks.
I've also been riding for just over 10 years, I've got the galop 5, I'm capable of taking care of a horse (stabling, feeding, riding), I just need advice and guidance in the case of a young horse.
As the daughter of teachers and the second of six children, I have a natural ability to teach and I know how to be patient with children (and I love them too).
I have a good level of English and would be delighted to share my mother tongue (French) and French culture with you.
As I've been in a relationship with an Italian man for 5 years, I have a basic knowledge of the language and culture.
I love discovering new things and listening to new stories, and I'd be delighted to return the favour.

What else ...

I love playing all kinds of board games, but being very unlucky, games that rely heavily on chance are not my favourite. Coming from a large family, I'm the second of six children, so I'm used to making concessions and adapting to different personalities.
On my days off, I love staying cosy under a blanket watching series on Netflix or reading a good romance novel.
When I'm abroad on holiday, I love discovering and visiting new places, especially those steeped in history, or when the weather's good, lounging on the beach.
I'm passionate about literature, real or invented stories and animals (although I'm very shy of spiders and snakes).
