Do you speak French?

Yes

Say a few words about yourself

I live in Bangor, ME most of the time. But I come to Harlem once a month to spend time with my woman who studies at Columbia. I grew up in Banlieue Nord. I used to live in New York City and I LOVE it. More specifically, I love the people. I have a little boy who I am raising bilingual. Having a francophone household can be a very isolating experience in Maine, but I stick to it! And I love to hear my son speak French and try to bring him to France to visit family once a year... I am an artist, carpenter and also tutor adults in French language and culture. I look forward to meeting you!
