ABOUT ME
I was born in french Algeria. My parents came to Paris when I was about four. I'm the father of three son, Alex, Roman and Paul, who live under my roof. Years ago, we left Paris to go to the french Alps (much beter climate for the kids). In 1998 we went to live in Montreal and spent two years there (gee it was great!!!). And back in France we are now living in the south, some steps from the sea, at the foot of the mountains and half an hour from Spain.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Amazing, certainly not, but things I'm so glad I did : At age twenty I made my first trip to the United States. It was love at first sight! Two month by my own, free to meet people along the road, in Grayhound buses discovering this country which was to be (and still is, more than ever) one of the greats passions in my life. I'm glad too that I crossed the Atlantic Ocean on a sail ship with some friends, and the Andes on horseback. I'm glad too of the Pilot's licence I got, and mainly of the Motorcycle licence that I've just had in august 2008 (This was a challenge belive me :-))
