ABOUT ME

French father, canadian mother and argentinien brother-in-law, no wonder I am attracted by travels and cultures! Outside from the small town I come from in the outter suburb of Montreal, I spent 4 awesome years at Sherbrooke during university, plus one year in Germany, one summer in the canadian Prairies, one semester in the states (Idaho, famous potatoes) 4 months in Burkina Faso and one summer in Paris. More recently, I've also lived and worked in central america and the Dominican Republic for a little more than a year.

My personal goal is to broaden my mind as much as possible, which I try to force by looking for new experiences and by reading a lot. I'm easy going and laid back and a good ear to everyone, but I can also tell you a lot of thing if you know how to listen. Tell me you're organizing something and I'll be jumping around looking forward to helping you ;)

PHILOSOPHY

in constant evolution and anyway not to be synthetised in one sentence.. but I'm definitely a humanist

Music, Movies, and Books

anything that tries to do something differently.

Coups de coeur: "The Shadow of the Sun" from R. Kapuscinski (Ebene, en francais). A wonderful testimony of Africa's diversity and richess.
"L'Automne a Pekin" from Boris Vian, for the playfulness of his writing and his relationship with words.
"La Cité de la Joie", from Dominique Lapierre, about the slums of Calcutta in the 60's.
"The Unbearable lightness of Being", from Milan Kundera, for his deep understanding of human beings and the quest for sense that we often forget.
