ABOUT ME
Hi, I am interested in writing, playing the guitar, swimming, travelling and 90 hip-hop. I sometimes commit some raps for fun. I am more low-key than exuberant for sure. If I had to answer to 'which type of country would define you the best, in term of temper, based on common beliefs ? I would answer that I am the merging of some French - Japanese - East Europe features. I was not born in Paris but in the West of France. After a year in Erasmus when in my early 20s I have kept the taste for cultural exchange and kind of sense to help foreigners in the streets. I spent many summers in the UK so I really enjoy speaking in English. I know a little Japanese, took an initiation in classic Arabic and am always happy to learn words in any language.
PHILOSOPHY
Some day, become who you are and try to do things that you like like writing on things that matter, apart from work, even if the 'blogs' so far look awful cause you update whenever you can

Music, Movies, and Books
Braveheart, Elephant, movies with xian Bale
Music: classic pop like Oasis, Blur, Red hot, ... Then EastFlatbush, Above the law, Dopplegangaz, US rap from the 90s (west mainly) and many commercial songs as any one. Last CS brought back to my memory GnR and songs rich in guitar.
Books: not the one i wrote for sure, so i would say l'atrape-coeur, un train d'or pour la crimée, Le démon, Au revoir là-haut, some Baudelaire. Since a trip in Wales I have got to know Dylan Thomas as well.
