ABOUT ME
A sympathetic and smily french poet from Québec.
Curiousity is a value that I keep from childhood to keep learning and improving. I wasn't really a new-languages guy, but now that I'm a traveller, I've become passionate by languages.
The first questions that appears in my head when I'm travelling : How do they live? What is their political situation? I can talk about these subjects for hours.
If curiosity is important for me, it is also part of hosting. It is important for me that you understand that my country is Québec much more than Canada, and that even though I like speaking and sharing lots of languages, speaking french is an important issue in Montréal
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in humanity and its diversity.
I believe that the only mistake that humanity did is to stop SEARCHING about itself and transcendance.
So, I keep asking questions because there is always something new to learn from our experiences.

I work in experimental theatre and I'm a writer and poet.
I love the arts, progressive music, litterature, social concerns, politics and history.
I travel to discover new cultures, to live in peace with nature and to write and read a lot. Social pleasures are part of the thing too :)
