Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Live a good life. And get better.
ABOUT ME
Since the last few years, I studied and worked in many places. I know quite well the province of Quebec. I prefer to stay in one place and try to discover it better than going everywhere without seeing anything. I don't dance and I don't go in dance clubs. I prefer littles places, little pubs, little cafes, places with a soul, where you can speak with your meets. I'm a bit shy and I prefer chatting with a few people than partying in an overcrowded place.
PHILOSOPHY
I try to live my life minding my environment. I live in a very mathematical, scientific world, and I love experiencing and learning new things.

If you are crying while cutting onions, it's because you have sulfuric acid in your eyes! And if you want your pee to be red and to smell like rotten cabbage, eat beetroot and asparagus with antacid pills!
