CURRENT MISSION

Smile at the world to make it smile back

ABOUT ME

Happy-go-lucky. I like to jump and dance around to the music in my head and to lie on the floor in the sun for hours, connecting with my inner cat. You might find it hard to stop me singing and humming, so if you're easily annoyed by that, better not host me! Melancholic in the heart, chillaxed in behavior. Childish but good-hearted, silly acting and empathetic. Curious, very curious! Playful. Contemplative at times. Every now and then I feel the urge to write, mostly poetry. Oh, and I love colors, they make me happy! And hugs! And cuddles!
Wow, this sounds pretty random. Does it?
Doubtful. Born skeptic who'd like to learn how to believe.
Still there?
Despite all the above I was told that I'm easy to go along with. I'd really like to hang out with you, because I love people and making them smile and be a bit happier today. Isn't that all we're here for?

PHILOSOPHY

Optimistic fatalist (definition pending)

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

woke up this morning

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I know one thing, that I know nothing.
(Well, I might be able to teach you how to juggle, but didn't make it past three balls. And I know half a move of Aikido, so never grab my wrist!)

We can't know everything, but we can want to know everything!
(I'm happy for any input, be it your favorite recipe, a new language or philosophy, or the best technique for stone skipping!)
