Music, Movies, and Books
Favourite book is a french one, unfortunately never translated. Title is like "No star is that far", author is Sege Lehman. Talks about the childhood dream of a man to become one of the greatest spacecraft pilots of a Star Wars-like world, and the disillusions coming with his quest.
Others could be "Miyamoto Musashi" of Yoshikawa Eiji and "The Vagabond" of Rabindranath Tagore.
Music : Rock and blues, enka (a japanese oldfashioned style often met in the yakuza movies) and indian music (not only "Bollywood", but classical too).
Movies : Too many ! All of Kurosawa (not "7 samourai" Akira) Kiyoshi, Sword of Doom, Tetsuo, all Miyazaki...
"Ashes of Time" by Wong Kar Wai, the Alien and Star Wars sagas, Matrix (the first), Ghostbusters 1&2...
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Walked on the glowing embers cover of a woodshed during a religious festival of the yamabushi, the moutain ascets, in Japan.
Climbed mount Atago at night for the annual opening of the Atago sanctuary, in Japan.
Climbed mount Fuji, collided with a giant and flashy green spider in mount Inari, spend the night to watch the Montenvers glacier by the moonlight in Chamonix.
