ABOUT ME

Spontaneity, improvisation, and discoveries!

Wake up, bike to work (enjoy the sight of beautiful Vancouver on my way to work, rain or shine), work (in finance and sustainable development) and have a blast doing it, go for a swim at Kits beach pool (THE most beautiful pool in the world), sit on a bench at the beach to read a few pages of my novel while the sun sets, come back home satisfied :) ...and restart!

WHat I enjoy: Biking, cooking, cultural events/music/movies in French & Spanish, listening to the radio (Radio-Canada, Vancouver coop), spending time outdoors, reading up on politics, economics, finance, participating in community events...feeling like I am part of a living community- whether locally or globally!

PHILOSOPHY

From Harper Lee's famous book, To Kill a Mockingbird: You never really understand a person until you climb Into their skin and walk around in it.

Centres d'intérêt

Everything that is related from near or far to cuisine, music, art and history. I love going to the market to buy fresh, local porduce, and encourage local merchants. Subsequently, I like to cook ... especially Saturday (best day of the week) and to share good food with my girlfriend and my friends in the comfort of my apartment. One of my guilty pleasures is to watch Tony Bourdain,

Besides food, wine, tea and coffee, I love to make musical discoveries by listening to radio programs of world music
