Meet Aliena...

Hi ! My name is Aliena and I'm seventeen. I was born in Paris in August, 1st 1998. I live in Allogny, which is not so far from Bourges. I moved here two years ago, but I used to live in Paris with my mother. I love living in Bourges because I think it's beautiful and really peaceful. Being from Paris, I wasn't used to this kind of town, but I like it here.

I love singing and listening to all kinds of music. I like reading and writing too, I used to write poetry when I was younger. I enjoy traveling and I have already been to London, New York, Spain and Germany. I like to play tennis with my father in my spare time. By the way, I would say that I'm really close to my father, he's like my best friend. He listens to me and we're able to talk for hours.

My favorite band is Nirvana and I'm crazy about this movie by Quentin Tarantino, Kill Bill. I also really like the series of books by Sarah Pinborough : Poison, Charm and Beauty. Those books are like a remake of famous fairytales, in a darker way.

I would say that I'm optimistic, creative, sociable, joyful and full of surprises. But I would also say that I am sensitive and sometimes slightly too impulsive.

I'm an only child and I have lived with my father for four years. I think that after my exams, I'll move from here to live in Paris with my grandmother. I would really like to finish my studies there. I would like to study english to become an english teacher.
