CURRENT MISSION

democratization of space travelling without spaceships

ABOUT ME

I study international law and international relations. I am looking for inspiration and particpation in any movement aimed at making a better world, more sustainable, more equal and more tolerant (couch surfing being one of them!). Interested in any counter-hegemonic issues. Half artist (musician, writer), half intelectual (political sciences, sociology, anthropology, law, philosophy). For some years, I was trying to make my way into music, trying to change the world from the outside. For the past two years, I decided to go back to university in order to build myself a credibility to try to participate in changing the world from within. Love travelling, discovering new cultures and new ways of thinking. I see myself as a world citizen although I am proud of my québécois roots. I am calm and somewhat a loner although I find balance in sharing, building close and intense friendships and partying when I need it!
