Nolwenn from France!

Hi, I am Nolwenn. I am coming from an island in Atlantic (Île de ré). I am doing my Phd in ottoman archaeology in Aix-Marseille, France and in Bonn,Germany, where I am currently living !

I lived in France, Germany and Turkey. For my studies I also worked in Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Azerbaijan, Jordan, Egypt, Cyprus, Oman and Bosnia-Herzegovina. As you can imagine, I traveled a lot and I would love to know more about your own experience !

I speak french, german and english, but I also have some knowledge in Arabic, Kurdish and Italian. Beside my PhD I teach french as foreign language and english and german for french speakers since many month and I really like it. I want to develop my italian to get the opportunity to teach french in Italy. I like sharing french culture and language !

I like to paint and to draw when I have time and I am sharing my art on my instagram account (if you want to check it : nolwenn.guedeau). I play piano and guitar, and sometime I sing with my boyfriend together. I love to travel, visit museum and go to concert, but also work in my garden where I have a lot of tomatoes !

I am very happy to be a part of Chatterbug.

Looking forward to meet you.

Cheers !

Bonjour Nolwenn! Je suis un débutant, et j’ai hâte de voir notre leçon!

What an exciting biography you have! It especially caught my eye because of your archeology work – I just recently learned about Göbekli Tepe. While not Ottoman per se, I was absolutely stunned that such remarkable places are still being discovered. Wow! Fascinating work.

À demain!
