Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
without mission... and all the more free.
ABOUT ME
observe people, nature, try to understand how the world works. And more particulary, I interest me in small animals like bees and ants. How they takes decisions, how they communicates, how they have evolved?... I like travel, not necesseraly very far (the vulgarisation of the plane, the most polluting of all means of transportation seems problematic to me...). I like listen and play music (Bassoon), classic music, baroque (I love Bach), jazz, visit exhibitions and comtemporary art that show the fantastic human capacity for creativity and abstraction.

I'm not a specialist in these fields, rather a novice or naive, but I love to discuss and learn about it.
