About Me
Just french guy wondering since he's kid what is the best way to live his life, and how to win this stupid race against time.
My parents couldn't help me, too busy searching for their answers. Shool teachers didn't give me any clues. The TV neather. Practicing athletics didn't make me fast enough to catch up elusive time. I briefly thought reading was the solution, but for every answer i get, a bunch of new questions just came in. Reading helps you finding the questions, not the answers.
And then i started travelling. For a week-end first. Then for a week. Later for a month. Eventually for months. And the magic happened.
My week in England feels like a month. My month in Indonesia like a year. My semester in Spain like a lifetime. For the first time, I felt I can fight back. The more I moved, the more time seemed to slow down. Take that time !
Hey, it's physics by the way. I'm not making this up, Einstein did. Special relativity, inspiring travelers since 1905. Don't trust me, trust him.
Don't stay stuck were you are. Move. Walk. Fuck the escalator, take the stairs. Hike. Run. And when you are tired, don't stay still. Ok, maybe for a cold beer with a hot girl. But then grab a motor bike. Put your ass in a shitty bus. Keep moving. Don't be the Langevin's twin who stay on earth, be the one on the rocket. Dare to face time.
Of course time still beats me up, punch me in the face so hard, but every day i spend on the road makes me stronger and a better oponent. I'm gonna win one day, for sure.
In the meanwhile, i'm now travelling for 6 months around Southest Asia, looking for everything and everyone who can open my mind, and proves me that i'm wrong about everything. Or just having fun like stupid, it's also cool.
I can speak French like a poet, English like a French -witch mean with a very strong sexy shitty accent, Spanish like a amnesic after not practicing it for six years, and Indonesian like a really tall five years old.
Don't know anything, but want to learn everything.
