About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Looking for a way to go

ABOUT ME

My favorite restaurants in Paris:
- Cacio e pepe (Italian food): be careful, usually you have to book!

- Caffé Dei Cioppi (Italian food): the warmest restaurant every, you have only 15 seats! Best when sunny (you also have to book...)

- Song Huong (Vietnamese food): next to the biggest and most famous Vietnamese restaurant, this one is at least as good ;)

My favorite places in Paris:
Butte Montmartre, Saint Germain, Butte aux Cailles, Place Monge, Jardin de Plantes, le Marais, Starbucks at Opera station, Rue Sainte Anne (Japanese restaurants)

PHILOSOPHY

They made it because nobody told them it was impossible.
Life's too short, make the most for it.

What makes your trip special is the people you meet.

And definitively share music and books
