Merhaba !
Merhaba ! Memnun oldum. ( "Memnun oldum" means "I am glad (to meet you)" . In Turkish we use it in dialogues to the new person we've just met. So it is a bit strange to use it in a monologue.)Benim adım Tiwinee.
Ben Fransızım. Ben Fransa'tayım. (Fransa'dayım)
Türkçe bilmiyorum. Fransızca ve İngilizce biliyorum.
Otuz yaşındayım.
Benim mesleğim yok. ("meslek" means "profession". You probably want to say "I don't have a job" = "Benim işim yok")
Ben işsizim.
Benim toplam iki kedim var. ("toplam" is an unnecessary word which means "total". Hence "Benim iki kedim var." is enough.)
Fransa'ta bu hafta kar yağıyor ! (Fransa'da)

Görüşürüz, güle güle !

You have problem in the rules of consonant harmonies. I don't want to write long explanations lest it bothers you. But preferring to do it in a nutshell:
If the word ends in a hard consonant (f,h,s,ş,p,ç,t,k), and if the suffix starts with c/d/g, the suffix turns ç/t/k.
Fransa ends in a vowel. So it's not a hard consonant.
Fransa + da >> Fransa'da (in France)
-de/-da suffix won't harden here.
..
dolmak: to fill (intransitive)
dolu: 1full
dolu: 2hail
dolmuş: minibus
tol- and tolp- are archaic verbs according to etimolojiturkce.com and nisanyansozluk.com : the best etimological dictionaries.
so "tol-" is the archaic origin of the "dolmak" verb.
tolp-
top: ball
toplamak: 1to collect, 2to pack, 3to add (numbers)
toplanmak: 1to come together, 2to pack (to pack one's own belongings)
toplantı: meeting
miting: rally, meeting in a square
toplum: society, people,
topluluk: society, community, group, crowded mass
topuz: flail (fr: fléau d'armes)
topuk: heel (foot)
