About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Trying to find my path in this world
ABOUT ME
I'm a French guy who left his country in 2003 to see the world. I consider myself as a world citizen, not as an French, European or whatever. I think we are all brothers and we should help each others anyhow. After living in France, Scotland, Guinea, USA and Russia, I ended up in Ireland where I work for the big Apple! I love snacks (the weirdest the best) or anything surprising actually. I love to travel to see new cultures, historical places, geological marvels...
My current traveling goal is to see the 49 European Capitals before the end of this decade. Not that easy but I'm sure I'll make it!

Music, Movies, and Books
Movies: Hard to say, I enjoy so many different kind of movies. Well, I'm a dreamer and I love stories which can make me think a lot afterwards. I'm more a series guy I think. Currently, I watch Doctor Who, Game of Thrones and Walking dead (HUGE zombie fan here!)
Music: Very open. I can listen to some old school Led Zeppelin to some classical such as Bach, then some SoAD to finish with Aretha, Kim Wilde or Michelle Branch. Yeah, wide tastes
Books: I wish I would have more time... My favourites are the LoTR (read before the movies!), the ants and dead trilogy from Werber, Maupassant for French classics, I loved Steinbeck when I was younger.
