About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I just moved to Berlin in January, I want to meet new people here and make friends :)

ABOUT ME

I'm a graphic designer and a musician.
I love all things about graphic culture, typography, comics, illustrations...
I played in a garage band called The Staches for 4 years. I'm doing other music projects now.
I'm a big music fan, I go to gigs all the time and I'm a vinyl collector.

I'm open-minded and friendly and I can be a lot of fun to hang out with.

I love meeting new people although I can be a bit shy at first, but once that's overcome I'm real fun. I think. I hope. :)

PHILOSOPHY

"Thanks for your time, then you can thank me for mine."

I want to live to the fullest and without regrets and be thankful for everything others have to offer me, good or bad.

I'm a pessimistic/optimistic: I always prepare for the worst but see the good in everything.

I'm open to any new kind of music, i love going to gigs, staying in to listen to records, playing music...

I used to read a lot more, now I don't have as much time but I love Jane Austen, Nick Hornby, Arto Pasilina, Virginia Woolf, books about travels and music.
I'm a big fan of comics too, Kate Beaton, KC Green, Jeffrey Brown, Meredith Gran, Daniel Clowes, Bill Watterson, Robert Crumb...

Movies I like all classics, David Lynch, Tim Burton, Polanski, Kubrick, Coen Brothers, Jim jarmusch, Kaurismaki, Wes Anderson, documentaries...

And I'm a whovian.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to a concert in an abandoned wood factory, in the countryside of Schwytz in Switzerland.

We stayed up all night and didn't notice the night was over until we watched the sun rise above the mountains and the railways.

That was an amazing feeling.

Teach, Learn, Share

I don't know if I have much to teach, but everything is good to learn for me!

I guess I could teach french, some cooking, a bit of music...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I know the best places to eat in Geneva since food is what I think about 99% of the time.

I can take you to the best concerts.

I can take you to the parts of the city that aren't in your travel guide.

I can offer you friendship and help, always :)
