Hello!
I’m Marie-Gil
I started living abroad at 19 and haven’t stopped since then. Follow me on a journey of self-discovery, difficult decisions and thirst for adventure, as I navigate new chapters of my life in various countries. This journey is not perfect and neither am I, but I am hoping that by sharing my thoughts and experiences I can connect with people and who knows, maybe even inspire some of you to take a leap of faith and jump in a new adventure. Explore ta vie means explore your life in French. It’s an invitation to be curious, ask yourself the tough questions and have the courage to pursue your dream life.
