Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Going deeply to the music traditions, their stories, their esthetics.
ABOUT ME
I have interest in what is going around the world, the cultures, the people, the landscapes, etc. Travelling is part of my life, and my memory is full of great moments meeting people, styles, from everywhere. Concretely, I am studing music (traditionnal music first, then jazz, tango, and classical ; lot of improvisation), and I've been studing art. I'm interesting in many things like writing, cinema, drama, but I try to focus on limited things. Now, about my personnality, may be I don't speak a lot at the begining, but then, I want to know about you, who you are, what you saw, what you like, and then, I bring you where you want, you will see what is France from inside, I will show you my friends, the places we go, where are happening the real things.
PHILOSOPHY
Let's happen.

Then, I hosted some people in paris, it was very cool.
