About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See the world with my own eyes

ABOUT ME

Always eager to meet new people, I like to listen more than I like to talk. I have an extensive taste for humor and I may tell some pretty stupid jokes (mostly when I'm drunk though).
I like to believe anything can be dealt with through discussion, excepted terminal illnesses and local sport team fanatics.

PHILOSOPHY

Curiosity leads to discovery

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Being born on the unique planet in the solar system wich can sustain life. I'm glad I wasn't born on Mercury because it's blazing hot in there.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well obviously I can teach some french words to anybody who's willing to learn, as I can teach some basics in japanese. Other than that I have a pretty extensive knowledge of most of the useless stuff you could want to know, such as the reason why the sky is blue or the time when horseshoe crabs appeared on earth.
I've also taught more than a few people how to roll a cigarette, because I know all the tricky parts :P
