Description
Hello dear earthlings! :)
My name is Lili (18 yrs old) and I'm from Reunion Island near Madagascar! Having lived in 10 countries and travelled all over (France, China, Vietnam, United States, Dominican Republic, Thailand, Slovakia, Panama, Tunisia, & The Netherlands), I am now a student in Liberal Arts & Sciences on a break and looking to reconnect spiritually and artistically to my adoration for discovering new places, cultures and people.
Although a reserved and very emotionally charged person, often overwhelmed by the beauty of our world and the endless possibilities of connection, what keeps me going is, thanks to my love for philosophy, litterature, poetry, photography, art history, anthropology and geopolitical studies, open my heart and mind up to radically different ways of life and soul-discovering.
Diagnosed with High Intellectual and Emotional Potential, I really appreciate to share my view of the universe but am also very open to listening and organizing any type of project with like-minded people! Whenever something touches me, I dive into it with no doubt or regret and can be an extremely devoted worker/partner willing to do anything to achieve my and other people's dreams. I would much rather risk it all and live day by day than stay confined to my student and academic world... I also really enjoy taking care of animals and the natural world!
I spend most of my time writing prose poetry, reading both fiction and non-fiction, learning about very diverse yet niche subjects such as prehistoric cultures, the culture of whales, primary forests... and walks and hiking are very close to my heart as well as photography/collages and music. I also make jewelery and paint on tee shirts!
Although ready for absolutely any adventure, my top destinations would be: Japan, Patagonia, Turkiye, Iceland (and all other Nordic countries) Kazakhstan, Vietnam, Cambodia, Madagascar, Mongolia, Kirghizistan, Nepal, Tibet, New Zealand...
