I'm easy-going and looking forward to learn, discover and create projects with peoples from the whole world. I travel a lot because of my work (research in computer sciences), and particularly love to visit cities "in immersion": living with / like the locals. I welcome any new experience with a great interest and do not intend to stop being amazed by any little discovery on the way.
