ABOUT ME

to make it short...
My name is Magalie, magovsky is my nickname and also my vitual ID on internet.
I'm extremely attracted by everything that is different and foreign; and have to "experiment" the most I can: people, music, food, habits ;-)
(but I'm also really attached to my home place Brittany, west of France)

...if you want to know more
I'm a happy crazy girl, part of the happy crazy people CS group ;-) both utopian and cynical, kind of a freaky mix but totally sociable!!
I'm very spontaneous, doing things like I feel to do (respecting the others of course) and don't care about general truths, I prefer discovering my own way, sharing with others.
I would also say that I'm a bit cynic, not only about humour, but also like it was in the ancient Greek school of philosophy...
(have a look at my post about Cynicism on CS)

I live with simple things, I like to laugh, and to make people laughing (i'm fond of stupid jokes!!).
I like to spend hours àrefaire le monde (kind of political or philosophical discussions), drinking beers in terrace, organise outdoors parties, travel by train, walk in unknown cities as well as inside a huge forest, be on the seaside, feel the sun on my skin, have a siesta (outside with sun is the best)...
I'm also a totally into woodstock spirit and values, voluntary simplicity, sustainable development and social design…
Find me on the Social Design Network.

PHILOSOPHY

Dream as if you'll live forever, live as if you'll die today -- James Dean

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

- FAR AWAY BEFORE any other:
Living Palomar5!!!
...
- Spending hours with friends making music (some jazz experimental kind ^^), feeling the goods vibes without stopping or even thinking :)
- Eating "Pateis de Belem" in Lisbon (amazing taste, i swear)
- Enjoying Sonntags Karaoke im Mauerpark (Berlin). Simple but so social!!!
- and of course, Erasmus time in Valencia! (my blog)

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a designer, so if I can help with creativity technics or with informatics tools (Adobe)... I'll do for sure! I can help with french as well, (why not with english and spanish) i love talking about languages, I can spend hours on it.
Maybe I can teach/share other things but it will depends of each people i'll meet...
