About meFrench, in my thirties, love literature and travel.
Bibliophile, book whore and French librarian, with an interest to teach what I love (Literature/Lettres Modernes/English), my long-term interest lies into teaching English, and my short-term ambition is to become qualified in the subject I love, Literature.
So far, I managed to get an undergraduate Diploma in Literature (DipLit, 2009). Currently studying for a BA (Hons.) in Literature.

About my libraryThere are many different books, from a wide range of themes and languages. I have read and used the books I placed so far on LibraryThing, and I heartily recommend them to you.
My passion for reading was set by the age of four, I self-taught myself to read fluently by then. Instead of imposing my various interests to others, I wish that people would read more, as part of a lifelong commitment, for pleasure and for fun, be them the sports pages of a newspaper, chick lit or biographies. Education is hard to come by if you are not given a chance by either your environment or your family, so reading can be the key that leads to intellectual fulfilment. The smallest effort can be very rewarding, I assure you!
