ABOUT ME

Hi, I am Swiss from Geneva, also living ponctually in Lisbon, Evian and Sion, and a little bit adicted with Asia just to swimm In Hot clear waters ...
Issued from the International Humanitarian Domain, very interested by different people/ethnic/customs/achitectures, also interested in philosophy, bouddhisme, arts, tai chi, meditation, etc.

Contemplative, j'aime surtout le silence, faire la grace matinée et prendre mon temps. Me balader s'il fait bo, ciné s'il tempête -J'ai assez stressé dans ma vie... je ré-cu-pè-re, je peins et je fais des projets, comme celui de créer un centre culturel en Asie, qui recevra un atelier d'art et artisanat de recyclage pour les enfants en difficulté ou non, mécènes WELCOME. (Projet suspendu en ce moment car recherche de partenaire fiable qui prendra la suite)

I especially appreciate silence, to sleep late in the morning and to take my time. I do not wish to have an additionnal burn out in my life, then I cure myself, painting, meditating and making caritative projects, as the one of creating a cultural centre in Senegal where kids in difficulty or not could practice arts and handycraft made out of recycling. SPONSOR WELCOME.(project postponed for the time being as not fiable Senegalese partner)
PHILOSOPHY
open minded, respect, courtoisy,
