About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Contribute for a better world with my simple gestures

ABOUT ME

Humm... difficult to talk about me, but I'm curious about people and world, not about private lifes. To understand the life and its misteries, travelling is a good help, bringing new experiences to our life that make, by comparison, to better understand humanity. Of course, in the humanity world, there are some particular identities that are great to find out, where genuine behaviors are particular niches that make so fascinating human beings. I am for multicultural world. We can't go back. We have very common challenges to the new future, that's why we need to be strongly together.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a person that believe in humanity evolution, and I try to give my contribute to make it, a real evolution, and not a regression :)
