About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to find myself by creating, and to multiply experiences.

ABOUT ME

Have you ever asked yourself "What am I ?" and tried to come up with the one thing that would be the most representative of yourself. That's not easily done, but very interesting ! Ok, I'll try :
I'm a creator.
Hmm. Yeah, sounds about right. I'm currently working on several projects and I carry the hope of one day be living from it. I do have a little job to pay the bills at the moment.

I hold the verb "to experience" as the most important one. Experiencing is the food for creating. For me the most valuable kinds of experiences are : truly meeting someone, pushing back our own limits, playing any kind of games, travelling, going through a story (with a book, a film...) and learning. It's astonishing how much we can thrive with those simple journeys !

I strongly value curiosity, empathy, attentiveness, imagination and crazyness. Welcome in my world ;)

Check out those really good quotes if you want a further gist of how I think :

PHILOSOPHY

"Opinion is really the lowest form of human knowledge. It requires no accountability, no understanding. The highest form of knowledge is empathy, for it requires us to suspend our egos and live in another's world. It requires profound purpose larger than the self kind of understanding."
-Bill Bullard

"Be the change that you want to give to the world"
-Gandhi

Curiosity excuses for any ignorance.

Interests

I like spending my time creating, dancing, writing, reading, experiencing new games, travelling, getting to know people, seeing films or series, taking photos, playing all sort of games, doing sport, cooking and sometimes just watching around for a while...
I'm very interested in : physics, psychology, philosophy, pedagogy, how the brain works, how society works, how earth works, how life works, how the universe works... but also : science-fiction !
