About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Not too quickly!!! Enjoy, have time, ...

ABOUT ME

First, my date of birth, let's start with the beginning: September 1982, the 27th (if ever you come at this date, a gift is not an obligation... ;~)). Then I learned Cello and still play sometimes. I've grown up with an orchester. We went in Guadeloupe, in Denmark and travelled much in France also. I miss that time...
Another point is I really enjoy making people know France and French culture. We love food, we have great buildings, we are proud (too much?) of our culture and we were contemplationists. So am I. And I'm here because I like to share this.
Finally, I am a scientist (understand I was good at Maths and Physics) and was decided to become a teacher... But the wind has changed and I now work in the electricity public service.

PHILOSOPHY

My personnal phylosophy is a hard question. I believe in equilibrium... Something we often break! That's why I believe we will take a great, huge and tought back-hand.

Music, Movies, and Books

My cultural backwards... French singers Brel, Brassens and Ferre, and then Rock music. I also love new french rock wave, includind accordion.
I often listen electro music, classical music and world music.
About cinema, Old boy, Clockwork Orange and "C'est arrive pres de chez vous" are my reference movies. A bit creapy uou might think! I love cinema from all cultures, of all type and with all budgets as far as I can see it in Original Version. I have a smallest preference for animated pictures. Lately, I saw Captain Orgazmo, ... amazing!
And books, in the end. Unhappily I don't read much, I have periods. I like English Litteracy, science fiction and Zola (a bit dark isn't it?). Lastly I discovered Harry Potter and I'm definitely fan!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I don't know if I have any shareable amazing thing to write in here. ....
Probably a date, in a restaurant, on the Pacific Ocean. I can't tell more.

Teach, Learn, Share

I just can share things, I can't teach. I can explain you the way my eyes see and why I think things are beautiful. It's your choice to adopt my way or not.

About learning, I'll be infinitely happy to learn a new recipe, to see things I've never seen, animals, buildings, manners, ... cultures!
