I'm a literary agent and publicist. I help poets to get recognition and get their works published. I am accompanying distinguished members of the Beat Generation to Paris for a conference and for poetry readings.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach the importance and relevance of literature and poetry in particular. I am also a historian and like to share my knowledge of the places I have studied and the context of modern life that results from all the things that occurred before. I now believe that things happen always for a reason and that there are no "accidents" in the historical continuum.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

I am a polite and appreciative person and love to learn new things, which I am sure my hosts can convey to me. I especially like to share food, and can cook. I expect to bring food to the host and to share the responsibilities of caring for their home.
