About Me

CURRENT MISSION

meeting people, learning anything, sharing time, ideas and emotions

ABOUT ME

Well I'm (already!)40, i teach philosophy and i find it great because I've always found very interesting to understand and make understand anything, and discovering year after year that teenagers aren't so appaling they're told to be! I have two children of four and one who take and give me a lot of energy. Nothing's greatest than the laughter of a child. My man works as a GP. We leave in an old house that we have nearly completely re-built and it's a passionating experience. I love outdoor sports as trekking, cycling, kayaking, swiming, sailing, watching birds at dawn and dusk (!!), gardening, d.i.y (oh yes it's sport) and most of all discussing. I also like reading anything, listening and playing music, cooking. I try to be open-minded (as much as i can. anyway doing philosophy is thinking againt itself, isn't it?). I like unexpected plans (I mean : les imprévus) and I guess I can say I have a good sense of humour.

PHILOSOPHY

I guess that (almost) everything is interesting, it's just a matter of focusing.
