CURRENT MISSION

To live truly, to do something that matters

ABOUT ME

Between the safe way and the risky way, I always choose the risky one. This is where the magic happens!

I want a life constantly moving and I never stay in one place very long.

PHILOSOPHY

"Il faut toujours être ivre, tout est là ; c'est l'unique question. Pour ne pas sentir l'horrible fardeau du temps qui brise vos épaules et vous penche vers la terre, il faut vous enivrer sans trêve.
Mais de quoi? De vin, de poésie, ou de vertu, à votre guise, mais enivrez-vous!"
- Baudelaire

"The only people for me are the mad ones, the ones who are mad to live, mad to talk, mad to be saved, desirous of everything at the same time, the ones who never yawn or say a commonplace thing, but burn, burn, burn, like fabulous yellow roman candles exploding like spiders across the stars and in the middle you see the blue centerlight pop and everybody goes "Awww!"
- Jack Kerouac, On the Road
