ABOUT ME

I'm 40 years old. I work as a freelance graphic designer in Paris.
I love life in paris and love to travel everytime I can.
I always try to enjoy the good things of the place I am living in. I love the variaty of people who live there. I can be in africa, in india, in china, just a few minutes in metro. I like the mix of diferent culture.
I'm positive, and open minded, curious about other cultures, people.

PHILOSOPHY

open minded, I'm curious and interested in nearly everything ! I just don't like people who feel superior, and I always try to look at things from diferent points of views.

Interests

I like : travelling, meeting new people, diferent cultures, diferent food, music, way of thinking, way of living.
As a graphic designer-artist, I'm very interested in arts (all kinds : everything visual but also music, theatre, circus, etc). I also love nature, sports (in nature) I used to sail and windsurf. I like trecking and everything in nature.
French father and english mother. We use to travel a lot with my family in a little camper bus. My mother was a volunteer for AFS (American Field Service) so we had plenty foreign students staying at home,. I went to live in a family in ecuador for a year with this exchange student program and had the most amazing and interesting year I lived untill now there.
Now at 40 years, this travel virus has never left me. Any time I have a little time and money, I buy a plane ticket and go visit a new place on the planet. What I really love to do while I'm travelling is to draw, paint. I always do a sketchbook. You can see some of my sketches on my website.
