CloGlo

Hi! My name is Clotilde and I live in France in the Champagne countryside.

I teach English and French as second languages in a middle school, and I love my job.

I love DIY stuff, scrapbooking, reading novels and watching series and films. I enjoy travelling and discovering new breathtaking views. I like the colours green, white and yellow but I don’t like purple and pink. I’m a very quiet person. I like puzzling, going to the cinema, having drinks with my friends. I’m more of a mountain person rather than a sea person. I’m not really fond of animals (sorry!). I like house plants and I like being in my garden.

I love rock music - the Foo Fighters, The Lumineers, Imagine Dragons, that kind of stuff. I also love musicals - The Phantom of the Opera, Notre Dame de Paris, The Greatest Showman… I’d love to go to Pink’s concert one day.

I read novels about strong women trying to find their was in the societies they are living in. I like historical novels. I also love the Harry Potter books!

I like reading about self care stuff and there are some spiritual books that I love.

Here are titles of books I loved reading: Pride and Prejudices, The Secret Garden, The Pillars of Earth, His’n’Hers, The Help, The Time Traveler’s Wife, Not Without My Daughter, The Great Gatsby, The Painted Bridge, Where the Crawdads Sing

I spend some time doing collages in precious notebooks filled with quotes that inspire me. I like watercolor, and pastel coloring.

I discovered mini zines, blackout poetry and neurographic art through the different swaps and I love doing those.

I enjoy redecorating my house, which was a village school before. I buy old furniture and paint it or customise it. I like embroidery and macrame

I like women centred drama series like The Handmaid’s Tale, Orange is the New Black…

I also enjoy British series such as Sex Education, After Life, Detectorists, Fleabag…

I love Friends and How I met your Mother.
