About Me

CURRENT MISSION

what do all the israeli soldiers do with their guns at home?

ABOUT ME

I am lost! Really - most of the time I have no idea where I am, thanks to my non-existing sense of orientation for that. But hey, that is a way to get to see the most of my environment.
I have a master in cultural studies and economics + after having quit my job at a french brewery, I came to Israel where I will stay until mid december. So whatever crazy idea you have, give me 5 min to get my camera and a jacket and then let's go and do it!

PHILOSOPHY

Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover. (Mark Twain)

Interests

Travelling and getting to know as many cultures and languages as possible.
Besides that, I like good food, french films, long discussions and the fact that I have no idea in which country I will be living in a year.
