About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel More and More

ABOUT ME

I'm a 32 years old French, currently living in Grenoble, France, where I am doing a post-doctorate in physics at the University.
I just came back to France after having stayed in Sapporo for a bit more than 4 years.

PHILOSOPHY

Hungry for new experiments.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had the whole Acropolis just for myself for like an hour or so!

Teach, Learn, Share

Basically anything. Especially learning/sharing about another culture, another language, another way of life...
Sharing our difference make us understand others better and oneself too.
Oh, and if you have some cooking specialty that you can teach me I'd love to learn. I really enjoy cooking and I like all kind of food. I may also be able to teach you a few stuff.
If you've read that far, why not reading about my home as well?
