About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Open wide eyes on the world, and feel it....

ABOUT ME

Easy going, and enjoying life. Eager to discover new people, new cultures. Highly curious about the world. Fascinated by the Earth. My heart is divided between sciences and arts.

PHILOSOPHY

I hardly believe that positive thinking, love and happiness, bring the good things to us.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

So many things I can't list them all... The first in my mind:
Spend the night on an erupting volcano
More than 6000m climb in Peru
Being adopted by a loving korean family and learning the tea ceremony
Bicking the death road in Bolivia
Meeting bears in the middle of Kamchatka
See people eating huge hairy black spiders in Laos (I couldn't)
Being hosted by a non english-speaking and very poor family of Afghan refugees in Pakistan.
...

I'm happy to learn anything around hand skills, music, art, science... and life more generally.
