About Me

CURRENT MISSION

feeling good

ABOUT ME

Most of all I like meeting people (I once wanted to be a barmaid, just to talk to people, any people). This is why I like travelling on slow motion too : to have time to meet people.
So one can say I'm a quite contemplative person, although some would say I'm always on the move. I think both are true.
I'm curious and keen on having lots of new experiences.

Interests

The three things that make me really thrill are walking in wild places (I love mountains, rivers and wetlands), living abroad and playing music with other people (I play cello).
Besides I like arts (music, painting, photography, cinema, litterature,...), good food and Qi Gong !

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

travelling at the back of a small motorcycle on the red and dusty countryside roads in Burkina Faso. Eating a sandwich of bread and avocado in the bayou. Watching the sunset over the volcano in Santorin (greek island) with the music of "2001 : A Space Odyssey" in the background. Watching shooting stars at night in summer by a fire in the countryside.
