About Me
ABOUT ME
I would tend to say I'm open-minded, curious about everything, I like things to be creative and surprising. I need to have my brain full of ideas, questions and creativity. I'm an aesthete and my camera lens has become my 3rd eye. I'm an epicurean nature and enjoy good food. I like to taste local specialties and beverages, go to grocery stores to discover stuff I've never heard about before.
PHILOSOPHY
Out of your comfort zone, is where the magic happens
Start where you are, use what you have and do what you can

Music, Movies, and Books
Stalker, Tree of life, Drive, Black swan, In the mood for love...
For me, music is the reflection of my state of mind, it helps me focus on creating, it also fills the infinite between souls and helps connect to people. So according to the moment I listen to totally different kind of music.
My childhood bedside book The Little Prince, Paul Celan's poetry
