About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live according to my dreams

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Montreal's suburbs from emigrated French parents, and studied Genetics for a while.

Now, besides writing and photography, I wish to work towards developing sustainable and healthy ways of living which would be better integrated with nature (or something like that... I still cannot find the right words to express it all quickly).

Something else quite important about me is that I particularly enjoy laughing.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is beautiful. Doing something good out of mine. Be the change I want to see.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Bach is my all-time favorite.
Movies: I especially enjoy Claude Lelouch's movies.
Books: "The Master and Marguerite", "Hundred Years of Solitude", Raymond Queneau. Currently I wish to write a book on the role and future of Science, and more actively search for anything related to this topic.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Realizing that everything is amazing when carefully looked at.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach for beginners about... French, English, ice-skating, cooking, volley ball, swimming, abstract drawing, writing, violin, Biology and Genetics, meditation, yoga...

I have a great deal to learn!
