Music, Movies, and Books

Playing guitar, clarinet, flute (badly, but I do !). Do not hesitate to bring me some music score. I thought about writing a book on my RTW travel. Otherwise, Hugo and Nebula awards are my principal source of documentation, with a few classics. My favourites subjects are somewhere between science fiction, bande dessinée, geopolitics, history. To name a few: Dune, Asimov' Foundation, The lord of the rings, La horde des contrevents, La zone du dehors, 2001 space odyssey, do android dream of electronic sheep ?, martian time-slipe, ubik, machiavel, diplomacy ...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Beeing on a boat a see a huge whale jump out of the water a few meters away? I nearly drop my coffee. To see the stars from the middle of the desert ? Beeing at the top of the highest mountain of the surrounding and see the sunrise from far far away ? To see pure love in one's eyes ? To play music and make love to it ? To work for a worldwide company for a while and finally say "No more. Enough of it." ? To travel the world around and meet mankind ?
