About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ultimate enjoyment of life

ABOUT ME

i'm addicted by cinema, movies, as much as travelling. For me this two passions are very related in my life. Movies when i was young gave me the virus to travel and now i like to give the virus to people i care and love in my island here in France.
For me, every good experience has to be shared. as its said in the movie of my life "into the wild" : hapiness real only when shared

PHILOSOPHY

every journey needs only one step...

on pense que l'on fait des voyages mais ce sont les voyages qui nous font

my main philosophy is in the movie "into the wild", end of chapter four, the citation of tolstoi. simply EPIC!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

You will see some video edits if you come. i'm the kind of man who prefers to talk about amazing things i've done in the eyes so i'll just say one small thing which helps people to understand how crazy i am about cinema and for me to travel is like to be in the movies of my life so : in Bangkok, feb 2006 at the BKK film festival i have shaked the hand of the man who was rising arms on the best wallpaper ever : Platoon. Mister Willem Dafoe who smiled to me then i started to cry cause when i was young i thought that guy was really dead (in the movie :-)
thanks oliver stone (i've seen him at a Q&A the day before at the same festival)
AMAZING !!! :-) (but not as much as some edits i'll show you if you come ;-)
