Beautiful people of CS, welcome on that page. A few adjectives to describe me:

~~ Respectful or trying the best to be;
~~ Self-questioning on values and approaches, permanently;
~~ I'm sexually straight; Absolutely gay-friendly however;
~~ Feminist, or against gender-discrimination rather say. Nothing is more desirable than an independent woman for what I can tell;
~~ controversial sometimes, but yet balanced. Nothing is black, nothing is white and absolute truth doesn't exist. All is a matter of perspective;
~~ A probable liberal that enjoys socializing;
~~ International interested into langiages and communication. I speak 5 languages, and would always like to learn a new one; Lived in more than 10 countries, traveled alone in more than I can count now;
~~ Against social standards, manipulating ideologies and phobias;
~~ Try to be happy in any context;
~~ I get lost, often in streets. And I am happy about it.
~~ Try to erase the complaining, envy, jealousy, regrets, and the like from my day to day approach of life.
~~ Stopping to eat sugar and conservative poison... Hard stuff.

Then, feedbacks CS friends gave me here-under are probably the most relevant description. Nevertheless, all details are not always kept, and this is what makes every person singular, and perceived differently every time by every person.

Besides, I am a happy living French young man, obviously meant to be cynical and slightly vulgar, in a positive way I'd say. Accordingly, I like to provoke my social standards and understandings, as well as yours dear comrades. Travelling is obviously a way to improve all this, but the little ant I am still does have a lot to see.

Over-sociable, talkative and keen on anything that is cultural, sportive, different, challenging, sub-cultural or somehow provocative. That's what probably can give you a picture of my behaviors.

I currently take pleasure in rock climbing, taking singing classes, going to the theater, and reading what I would qualify as nice books (philosophy, Psycho/sociology, Literature based on the forementioned, etc...)

Should we meet?

CURRENT MISSION

To earn the world champion title of thumb-fighting.

QUESTION:

"If you wake up at a different time, in a different place, could you wake up as a different person?" Chuck Palahniuk asked us that.

PHILOSOPHY

"Of what is great one must either be silent or speak with greatness. With greatness — that means cynically and with innocence".
Friedrich Nietzsche, in The Will to Power, Preface (1888)

"If you chase two rabbits both will escape" is a funny sentence. But not only.

Onanism is another philosophy, because i like the word (even though this online dictionary seems not to know it). Most part of the human kind constantly practice it, without even being conscious of it. No worries though, let's take selfies together! :D
