CURRENT MISSION

If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?

ABOUT ME

My name is Elo like "Hello" without "H"

My mum calls me "Miss Disaster" !

I'm born with 2 fumbling hands, same for my feet, I fall over all the time and brake everything I touch.

Moreover, I felt from a star a night of November, a bit before midnight. Since this day, I stroll in this weird world, few centimetres above the ground but my head still there high.

Sometime I think life is so unfair.
Sometime I think life is beautiful.
The most important thing I have in life is freedom.
I think everyone should travel, even Books.

My friends say I'm a "bro" with boobs.
I often wish to be a guy.
I have a weird sens of humor.
I swear like a sailor.

I believe in faith and karma and try to keep mine good.

I suffer of few obsessive compulsive disorder but I'm working on it

I'm a geek.

I travel because :
I'm curious
The perfect meal :
Anything shared with some nice people.
I never travel without :
My computer.
Travel gadget I wish they would invent :
Teleporter.
Last thing I broke while travelling :
My heart each time I say goodbye.
The thing I always forget to bring :
A swimsuit.
Travel inconveniences I could do without :
Dirty toilets.
When I'm not travelling, you will find me :
With some friends or online.

PHILOSOPHY

Live each days like it's the last one.
Learn something every days.
Make grumpy or sad people smile.

Life should not be a travel toward the grave with intent to arrive safe in beautiful and perfectly preserved body, it should instead totally make some faux-pas - a glass of wine in one hand, a cigarette in the other - We must always totally enjoy and finally get to the end with a body totally messed up and yelling WHOO HOO ! What a such great adventure, such a wonderful travel !
