My name is Marlen, and I come from the picturesque city of Bordeaux. I've always been a bit shy, often preferring the quiet comfort of my kitchen to the bustling social scenes outside. Cooking is my passion and my refuge. When I'm in front of the stove, I feel a sense of belonging. Each ingredient is like a note in a song, and together they create something beautiful. I love experimenting with flavors and trying new recipes, often inspired by the local markets filled with fresh produce. There’s something magical about the transformation that happens when I combine simple ingredients. I may struggle to find the right words in a crowd, but when I share a meal, my heart speaks directly through the food I serve. It brings me joy to see the smiles on the faces of those I cook for, and in those moments, my shyness seems to fade away. Cooking is not just my hobby; it’s how I connect with the world around me.

Sometimes, when i cook myself a great meal (my favorite dish is carbonara), i can leave it, but i don’t throw it away, but try to make some other masterpiece, for example, i start improvising and make something even more delicious from the leftover food)

Yes, yes, i like to admire myself in the mirror because I think I'm a very pretty girl^^

In my free time, i like to cook, that is, i have a small hobby of preparing various dishes, i recently started practicing pastry cooking, i’m trying to start with cakes, then smoothly move on to making creative cakes. I really hope that everything will work out for me, and your faith in me will give me even more energy!

As the sun sets in my beloved Bordeaux, painting the sky with hues of lavender and gold, my heart begins to wander to another place --Los-Angeles. There's something enchanting about the idea of waking up to watch the sun rise over the Pacific Ocean. I imagine stepping onto a balcony overlooking the endless blue, coffee in hand, as the first light of dawn dances across the water, igniting the sky with brilliant oranges and soft pinks.
