1. What is your motto?

Enjoy every experience as if it was the last.

2. Do you have a nickname?

Not really, but since I started dancing tango professionally people have often called me 'La Mariposa' (the butterfly). Does that count?

3. Where do you see yourself in ten years time?

Hopefully, living the exact same life as I am living at the moment: in residence in Ireland and touring the world with tango!

4. What is heaven to you?

Heaven is the countryside at the early hours of a nice spring or summer day. Being surrounded by the sounds and smells of nature waking up is such a deep and peaceful experience.

5. What is hell to you?

Solitude.

6. What would your dying words be?

I want more!

7. What is your favourite method of relaxation?

Lying on the grass with my dogs.

Carrot juice with ginger.

Watching people dancing at a Milonga (tango night) and seeing them smiling and enjoying themselves.

10. What is your favourite album of all time?

'Dos' by Otros Aires.

11. Who is your favourite musician or band?

It has to be Otros Aires. I just love the mix of very traditional tango sounds with new alternative rhythms.

12. What is your favourite movie of all time?

'The Hours'. In all its details, it tells such a truth about most women's lives.

13. What is the last DVD you bought or rented?

'Café de los Maestros', a film/documentary about the legends who made tango music: 80-year-old men who can hardly walk now, but still come to life with their instruments. So, so moving.

14. What is the last book you read?

'Middlesex' by Jeffrey Eugenides.

15. What is your favourite television programme?

All types of documentaries showing people and life.

Hypocrisy.

18. Where in the world would you most like to visit?

Egypt.

An eagle, to get a different vision on life, from up there!

The tango scene.

21. What do you like best about yourself?

Being a multi-tasker!

My tango and life partner.

23. What would you do if you won the lottery?

I would renovate my grandparent's 17th century farmhouse in France and make sure it lives for another few centuries!

24.  Do you have any hidden talents?

Hidden?  It would be a pity to have a talent and hide it!

25. What's your immediate plan for the future?

Doing the 'Destination Tango Irish Tour' and getting married!
