CURRENT MISSION

Finish my master's thesis and head on to Mexico!

ABOUT ME

Check out my occupations, sums it up I guess...
My focus, interests and activities revolve pretty much around reading the world and understanding the people that inhabit it through the enlightenment brought to us by social sciences, leftism and Hip Hop culture!
I sometimes get tired of the bourgeois bohemian ambiance of Paris, and especially of the lack of funkiness, freakiness of the city of lights, so I get the hell out of it when I can!
Oh, also, I'm a french and american dual-citizen, and even though I grew up in France, I must admit I feel a strong link to my other home town: Portland, OR baby!
For the rest, just meet me!
Cheers

PHILOSOPHY

Pop and Hip Hop Culture uplift!, chilling is the answer, leftist, anti-imperialist, I never think of the future nor am nostalgic of the past...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
