In quest for (more) meaning
ABOUT ME
I have much trouble trying to define myself. I can be completely different depending on the persons I am with. Sometimes shy, sometimes chatty, sometimes completely nuts...
Well, more concretely. I believe I am rather open-minded, not easily shocked, good-tempered. But most of all very curious : I am keen on learning always more about life, people, the world, celluls, atoms, symbols, animals, I mean... anything!
Interests
Psychology, Art and architecture, astrology (YES I do give it some credit... sometimes... Humf!), neurosciences, environment, literature, English and languages in general, cinema and theater, natural medicines, philosophy, and so many things I can barely cope with! Even physics and mathematics, as long as it participates in making the Universe more understandable.
Music, Movies, and Books
'The black source', by Patrick Van Eersel, about NDE Enthralling !
'Love in Times of Cholera' by Gabriel Garcia Marquez : a jewel of a love story !
'An interrupted life, the diaries' by Etty Hillesum. Such inspiring writings.
'The top 5 regrets of the dying', a proper lesson of life.
And so many more ! So much to read, so little time...
*
I still have some gaping holes in my cinematographic culture despite my efforts to watch classics. But among others, I liked The Truman Show, Philomena, Stalingrad, Humans (by Artus-Bertrand, a MUST-SEE documentary about humanity!), A History of Violence, L' Auberge Espagnole and most of all, AMELIE.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I saw a hypnotist making dozens of students behave like animals thanks to the sheer power of his voice. That makes you seriously wonder about the human mind !
Teach, Learn, Share
Well I have many recipes of desserts (including a tasty Crème brulée, Mousse au chocolat, Tarte Tatin, etc.) Yes, I have a sweet tooth !
I have been a French teacher lately so... if you wanna know "Bonjour", "Comment ça va?" and the likes, I can help you with that.
