About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore and share

ABOUT ME

I'm a discoverer - always curious, deeply interested in people, loving life, needing nature and culture. I am from France, lived in Canada, Australia, NZ, Sweden, now Northern Ireland, and have been to a few other places.

PHILOSOPHY

I've decided to be happy, because it's good for health (Voltaire)

Interests

I used to play a lot of music - not so much recently but it's still close to my heart...and my feet, as I now DANCE a lot. A LOT. Lindy hop, mostly, some tap, but you'll get me moving with many different styles of music. I love different sports (yoga, capoeira, ice-hockey), particularly those that are done in the great outdoors: sea kayaking, canoeing, rock climbing. My favourite thing in the world may well be canoe-camping on a lake, surrounded by absolute wilderness on a bright crispy day...or having drinks with fun people, listening to live music on a sunny terrace? can't choose, and won't!

Music, Movies, and Books

Love books, crazy about music (and dance), and well...love movies too

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many, I'll be happy to share.

Teach, Learn, Share

I do teach for a living (partly), so I can talk a long time about the ecology of living organisms and ecosystems around the world. But I love to talk about music, and philosophy, and sport, and psychology...sharing is what keep us alive!
