There's always a siren, singing you to shipwreck

About Me



I am currently off the coast of Alaska. You can reach me by message or e-mail which may not be checked all too frequently.

I know a few useless phrases in french and italian. "I am a pretty girl," "I hate the color red," or "We select the sausage" for example. I also secretly want Dolly Parton to sing me to sleep every night. That's not weird at all.
