About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I came to Montreal in 2011 for a 3-month internship and eventually I stayed. I did not travel much in my life but I know I have much to learn from it.

PHILOSOPHY

"€œA man needs a little madness, or else he never dares cut the rope and be free." (Zorba the Greek)Quest for imperfectionism

Music, Movies, and Books

I like music like Nick Drake, Elliott Smith, Olöf Arnalds, Karkwa, Gonzales, Bon Iver, Cat Power, David Bowie, PJ Harvey, Avishai Cohen, Other Lives, Philip Glass, Ametsub, Kate Bush...

Movies like Mulholland Drive, Lola rennt (Run Lola Run), Trou story, L'homme qui plantait des arbres (The Man Who Planted Trees), Incendies, Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, documentaries.

I don't read much but I'd like to.

Much to explore, I like recommendations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It seems that coming to Quebec was a significant move in my life, I experience new things and meet great people. Also it makes me want to see more of France where I come from.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love good food but as a cook I'm a beginner, so you can show me how to cook something good and simple, and you'll have made my life a little better! I still don't know how to whistle with my fingers.
