JapaneseLearningI love talking with people, adventures, and exotic cultures. Naturally, that led me down the rabbit hole of learning languages.
Born in France, I've been living abroad for the past 6 years, in-between Asia and Europe.
Working on Lexirise is really cool as I get to use my own product every day!
