Interests
I study, read, write occasionnaly when the time and the energy are given to me. I love cinema. My favourite books are mostly those of science fiction, fantastic or polars. I spend also a lot of time with my girlfriend when I can (she's currently at the opposite of the world so it's less easy). I am passionned by history and any place of signifiance related to our past. I wish I could explore all of them and I really want to go to IStanbul, Jerusalem and to return to ROme. But I am also very interested by more modern cities such as New York, London and Moscow.

Music, Movies, and Books
LOrd of the Ring, Star Wars,Indiana Jones, Jurassic Park (Yes I really like Steven Spielberg) most of the movies of the Brother Coen (Big Lebowsky is my favorite). Plenty of other movies whose list is too long. I love all the books of Isaac Asimov, Philipp K Dick, Arthur C Clarke, Pierre Boulle, Barjavel. The ones of Ellis Peters or Agatha Christie or the inquiries of the commisary Montalbano. My interests are broad and I'm always ready to discover new thing but I have to say that in general I prefer quite established stuff to the one too much "avant-gardiste".
I like mostly the Rock Music from the 60s and 70s and I can't leave without it. I like sometimes to just hanging out listening the Doors or The Velvet Underground (among others)
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Being in Rome and more precisely in Ostia and being able to see actually what a great civilization has built in the past. It has made me thinking a lot
Teach, Learn, Share
I speak French and English fluently. I know a little Arabic German and Spanish. I am fond of history and my general knowledge is quite wide.
