Hello from my side of the world!

Hello ladies!!

I am so happy to be the newest contributor to Ladies, Say What You Say! I was completely thrilled when Fran asked me to join, and I am really looking forward to this whole experience. I can't wait to "meet" all of you and share all of our thoughts and ideas on life. :)

Some of you may read my blog from time-to-time, but for those of you haven't, I thought I'd give a little background about myself. I graduated from university last year in San Francisco and instead of feeling ecstatic about starting a career or settling down, I found myself feeling completely lost and unsure of things. So, looking for something completely new, I recently moved abroad to the UK in April and left everything (and nearly everyone!) behind. The experience has been terrifying at times, but also completely liberating. I am so grateful for it! At the moment I am currently deciding between two possible scenarios: beginning my MA in Journalism this September here in London, or running full-force into full-time employment. We will see what happens. My blog is completely random and full of my thoughts, ups-and-downs, stories, likes, dislikes, and every other random thing you could imagine...I hope to share some of my similar thoughts on here as well.

Thank you again Fran!! :)

I'm the new lady!

Hello everybody,

My name is Valérie and I am now officially a member for What the ladies say. Thanks Fran for the warm welcome! With this first post, I’d like to introduce myself and tell you a little bit more on the subjects that interest me.

First of all, I have to warn you : I’m French so I apologize for the eventual English mistakes I’ll do. My culture is important to me but I’m very open minded and love to learn about other countries, discovering new stuff, meet new people … But what I do like more than anything is learning about life and finding my purpose in this world. I have a BA in psychology which I think explain my huge interest in understanding myself, relations of all kind between individuals and self development (and TV shows and fashion but it does not really have anything to do with psychology!).

I created my own blog, En quête d’inspiration, a few months ago so that I can share with my readers some life lessons. The blog will still be active but I will put some of my articles here and feature also new people on What the Ladies say. I’m truly glad of the opportunity that has been given to me.

I believe there’s a lot of amazing 20somethings here on the Internet. They have great messages to deliver and I’ll try to help them to deliver it. I love discussions so if something I say don’t resonate with you, if you do not agree or if you just want to share your thoughts, just react to the articles. I want to hear your voices! Your opinion matters to me.

All the best,

Valérie
