About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Open myself up to the world and to people around me.

ABOUT ME

I am friendly, easy-going, open-minded and respectful. I am interested in discovering new things, people, cultures, experiences....
I like surprises, unexpected encounters, adventure, change, arts, being in water...
I am still trying to figure out how i want to occupy my time on this planet (except for what's written above), who with and where ? That's why I think travelling is so important. I just want to enjoy life after all !! Don't we all want ?
Oh, I love to cook too !
You will learn more when we'll meet...

PHILOSOPHY

I truly believe travelling and meeting new people is the best way to open one's mind and to perceive oneself as part of a global community and NOT as an isolated lonesome human being. We all have something to share and/or to learn from each other. Relationship with others play an important role in one's identity construction, since we are all social beings. So we'd better not mess that up !!

What else...oh : "It is not what you look at that matters, it's what you see" Henry David Thoreau.

One more thing, do you know Robert F. Kennedy's speech "On the mindless menace of violence" ? Check it out !
