About Me

CURRENT MISSION

prepare trip to Firenze, Italy in April

ABOUT ME
I belong to a drama group and our last performance was 'Three Sisters', by Chekhov.
I love to dance Argentinian tango.
I believe in equality between races, between sexes.
I try and live ecologically.
I love foreign languages :
Hablo español (he aprendido en la escuela)
Ich spreche Deutsch (mit total falsch Grammatik!)
and a few words of Russian, Italian, Hebrew, Arabic.
I love bright colours to wear and to live in!

PHILOSOPHY

be diplomatic : not all truths are to be said

Music, Movies, and Books

Leonard Cohen, Stephan Eicher, Pucini, to listen to,
70ies'disco-funk, 80ies'pop, and some 90ies'rocks to dance on,
Woody Allen, Eric Rohmer, Pedro Almodovar, Cédric Klapisch to watch,
But not much of a reader (well, can't think of a writer or a novel I would read over and over; just some scenes from classical plays by Molière, Racine, Shakespeare)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

cycled 600km along the river Loire down to the ocean !

Once a week, I teach adults how to ride a bicycle!
