CURRENT MISSION

Try to live a meaningful and happy life

ABOUT ME

Just started a new career in France as a primary school teacher. Still learning...

Spent 7 years living in Osaka, Japan before that.
Worked as a film festival organiser there (www.oeff.jp)

PHILOSOPHY

Try to always be as concious as possible of the marvel and mystery of the world's existence and our own as part of it. The marvel of conciousness.

From this sense of mystery and wonder, grow a feeling of joy, love and tolerance.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Lived in Japan for 7 years, learned the language, got a work visa, got a dream job (film festival organiser - www.oeff.jp), made great friends, fell in love with the country, its people, and 2 great girls (one at a time !).

Managed to get 2 first class tickets from LA to Osaka for a famous guest (composer Maurice Jarre) for free from a sponsor. Had the guy (who was over 80 yo) fly to Osaka for the film festival.

Climbed Mt. Fuji at sunrise (and get heavily mountain sick in the process).

Built earthen houses in Thailand, in a great place called Pun Pun (www.punpunthailand.com)
