About Me

I am a very relax mate definitely eager to have fun at any time. I really like having discussions, debates and dialogues on pretty much any subject (but especially cinema, music, politics and philosophy). As you should come to know, I am a philosopher. I've travelled quite a lot but I still hope I will be traveling much much more in the future.

My longterm objective is to change the face of the planet for the better as much as I can. But before that I need to know myself better. I believe I can achieve that goal by putting myself out of my comfort zone. And that's what travelling is all about.

I grew up in Montréal, Québec. Since 2016 I live in Hamburg, Germany. I just began a Master's program there in philosophy, political science and economics. Also, I started a documentary project with my friend and I am still editing this documentary I filmed in Tunisia about the youth and civil society.

One last thing you should know, I am taller than you. Like, much taller, trust me!

A matchless album: Radiohead's "In Rainbows"

A few more artists I love: Jean Leloup, Michael Hanake, Milan Kundera, Arcade Fire, Federico Fellini, John Steinbeck, Albert Camus, Pedro Almodovar, Jacques Brel, Richard Linklater... To be honest, the list is almost endless and keeps expanding every day.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2013, I spent three months in Belgium. When I came back to Montréal, I had a really long and exhausting flight which ways delayed. My friends were waiting for me at the airport when I arrived at 2AM.

When we finally met, they tried to convince me to go on a road trip to New-York city right away. I accepted.

I can tell this was a really exhausting experience, but I have absolutely no regrets whatsoever!
