About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Go to Istanbul

ABOUT ME

Well I'm a Parisian guy who traveled a lot. I love debates, poetry and parties. I hate turnip and celery.
My parents love me, my friends think I am fantastic, and my grandmother is persuaded that I will be a great great man.
But I will study at least three more years, so I have time to find a way to satisfy my grandmother. I finished an economics master this year and I am beginning a law and philosophical one next year.
I was also a mathematics teacher at the university, an actor in China for the cinema and some TV ads, a barman (I make delicious cocktails, no hangover), a night receptionist in a hotel (best way to make money while sleeping), a cashier in nightclubs and a marketing planer for luxury brands. And I also built a soap factory near Katmandu two years ago during the summer.
On my free time, I love racket sports (tennis, squash, pong pong....) and yoga, then I occupy my brain with books, movies, concerts, art galleries, parties ...
Finally I need to laugh at least half of the time I open my mouth.

PHILOSOPHY

Think by yourself.
