Frank of Toulouse

My philosophy has always been: " Enjoy life to the fullest!". I would discribe myself as  very sensitive, emphatic and outgoing person who cares a lot of about other people. I'm passionnate about art and different cultures, which i conside to be an enrichment for my personality.

And foremost of all, i love people and i love sharing my thoughts and feelings with them. I have already been travelling a lot and i have seen and learned so much during these travels.

I love sport. I used to play handball and do athletics and i often play tennis.

Is is important to me to take care of my body and my soul. I hope you will enjoy my blog!.

Maybe, we will run into each other during your visit to Toulouse.

It is a place which is located in Toulouse at a height of 258m2.

“Pech David” will become a place for observation, leisure, relaxation, games and picnics for all, in an improved setting!!! .

 

For this year are planned:
