About Me

I am a really open-minded, peaceful driven person. I believe open-sharing is a key to most of world's problems. I'm very idealistic, but with one foot solidly anchored in reality.
I surely want to know you, whoever you are, and I hope I can give you as much as I'll receive.
People often say I'm a modern hippie. I don't consider myself has one, but I take it as a compliment.
I need to lead my life. I really try and listen to everyone who's in it, but in the end, I'll do what I think is best and I'll try learning from mistakes that will follow those choice.
I am a very spiritual being, I try and question each of my actions. Integrity is a primary value for me. Not lying to myself and asking other to question me and let me do so with them is for me a key to evolution toward mindfulness. I believe that only by being, you change the world. It's our responsibility to change toward what we believe. I perceive the world (the whole universe) as an interdependent living force of which we are all a unique (and so essential) part.

Interests

I actually work in computer science (web development). But I consider myself rather multidisciplinary. I do not believe you can narrow one's life to a single direction.
So I also love art (which I define as the expression of creativity). I consider it the direct expression of one self, the most pure one.
I don't believe in miracle, life's a big miracle it self in which every thing's possible.
I love writing (these days, poetry majorly), want play more piano, meet more people (humans are, in there deepest essence, social beings, I find it deeply sad how people try everything not to meet anyone (wear earphones in public transportation, and profoundly avoid looking at anyone else, for example)), travel further away, live deep changing experience, love more, eat less, waste less, consume more wisely, drink better beer (I love discovering new beers), help more people (including myself).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The deepest experience I lived was a challenge to myself. Take a 300 km walk from Montreal to Quebec with less than 50 bucks. A ten day journey that led me to profoundly asking myself who I was and what I wanted to become.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My (unique) laugh, and some recommendations in beer, whisky and wine tastings!
