ABOUT ME

Guillaume (39 years old) - the adventurer:
I just quit my boring job in a big company to start my own business as a freelance androïd & web developer. I have two passions: computer sciences and mountaineering. My hero is Mike Horn and I plan to make an expedition per year (I began in 2012 and went to Peru with some friends, a tent, mountaineering boots and a water filter). I practice triathlon and I drag Laura on two-day adventure races all across France.

Laura (30 years old) - the dreamer:
I am a freelance translator, which mean that I don't have a boss, I can sleep until 9am and be at work at 9:05, and I have plenty of free time. Well, the latter is not that true... When I am not translating for bad-payer clients, I swim, run and ride (I practice triathlon in a sports club), I meet new people thanks to a climbing facebook page where I can find climbing partners all the time and I write in English during a writing workshop organised at Shakespeare&Co bookstore in the heart of Paris.

Music, Movies, and Books

Guillaume:
My favourite movie is Tron!
I did not like reading when I was at school but The world according to Gap is the one book which thrilled me.

Laura:
I am trying to be a cinephile and find time to watch movies (old and new ones). I love a lot of directors such as Capra, Hitchcock, Lubitsch, Scorcese, Tarantino, Fatih Akin, French directors...

The last great book I read and loved: Bel-Ami from Maupassant. I like Khaled Hosseini's books (the Kite Ruuner, Thousand splendid suns), Ken Follet's books, Douglas Kennedy. And a lot more.
