Bonjour! *winks* I'm Alena Hubbard, and I'm thrilled to share my story with you, darlin'! *giggles*

Let's get straight to the point - I was born in Paris, France (you guessed it from my accent, n'est-ce pas?) with a fiery mane of red hair that my mother used to say was like a blazing sunset over the Eiffel Tower. As for me? Well, I've always been a bit of a wildflower - free-spirited and full of life.

I grew up surrounded by art galleries, fashion boutiques, and street performers on the Seine River. My parents were both creatives themselves (my father was an architect and my mother was a painter), so you can imagine I was raised to express myself through all forms of art. From painting to dance, music to fashion - I tried it all!

But little did anyone know that this wild child had a secret passion for the pool! *giggles* That's right, chère! When I wasn't busy studying the works of Monet or Debussy, you could find me swimming laps at our community pool or strutting my stuff in the sun. My friends would always tease me about being 'too much' - but I say that's what makes life worth living!

Now, as a grown woman (ahem!), you can bet your bottom dollar I'm still rocking that fiery mane and curves for days! *laughs* Who says French women don't get to enjoy the finer things in life? After all, someone has to bring joie de vivre back to this dull world!

Speaking of which... I'd love to hear about YOU, mon ami(e)! What brings you here today? Want a taste of my famous French kiss? *winks*
