About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Je ne suis ni Athénien, ni Grec, mais un citoyen du monde. -Socrate-

ABOUT ME

Well, like most of the people here I'm a very relax guy, who like to meet new people and discover new places.
I love learning about cultures and history. I'm very respectful of life, for the chance I have to be here and grateful for the privileged life I have.
I do a lot of differents sports, mostly outdoors. We're lucky in Canada to have those four differents seasons!!
I'm a wine collector (tastings++) and I cook a lot. What a pleasure for the senses!
I spend spare-time with my friends, read a lot on many subjects (mostly about geopolitics/finances and progress of sciences in general) and practice sports.
Professionnaly, I don't feel like working, since I help people with my expertise. Everyday is different..
I'm considered a passionate, generous and respectful person.

PHILOSOPHY

Je ne suis ni Athénien, ni Grec, mais un citoyen du monde. -Socrate-
La vie, c'est comme une bicyclette, il faut avancer pour ne pas perdre l'équilibre. -Einstein-
