About Me

I am a human being on a quest to be! I come from an island in the United States, but I've been living in France for the last eight years or so.

I'm a little obsessed by antique cameras and typewriters.

I get a little confused by langues sometimes... and I'm interested in interestingness.

« Avec tes défauts, pas de hâte. Ne va pas à la légère les corriger. Qu'irais-tu mettre à la place ? » — Henri Michaux

Depuis quelques années, je suis un peu fasciné par les choses minuscules, (des coquillages, des cailloux, des bouts de verre de mer, etc.)
