About Me

ABOUT ME

I joined CS as I was introduced to it by an American friend and found the idea a very good one. Since 2010, I have hosted several people and have several good and some awkward memories. I have learnt a lot about people, cultures , both differences and similarities. I am also an avid turned occassional blogger these days, as I am busy with my PhD.

In any case, I used to run this blogging project last year, where 52 different writers wrote on the blog for 1 week each to create a massive collaborative writing piece in its own right. http://viehebdomadaires.com/

PHILOSOPHY

Life always has a way of stacking its cards against you. The sooner you accept it, the more prepared you are.
