Bio

Very simple, a life-curious's wanderings in real life...: French baccalaureate in Literary section, History of Arts in option - 2007 First year of a bachelor's degree (Licence) in History of Arts - Toulouse II - 2007-2008 First year of a bachelor's degree (Licence) in History - Toulouse II - 2008-2009 First year of Journalism and Communication in EJC Blagnac (Toulouse) - 2009-2010 After internship in a national newspaper, realized (at last) that I possibly had a problem with the education imposed on/proposed to me (whether the bone of contention were the methods, the contents or forms, I still ignore - I'm begining to think the problem was simply myself: I would not accept to be taught in someone else's "politically correct" viewpoint). Travelling Europe working as a bartender - 2010-2012 Taking back studies: finally, now my ego had been shut up a little and my mind opened enough, I considered I was ready to accept (or at least, tolerate) some form of teaching, as long as I could find it interesting enough to be thrilling, and hard enough to be challenging. Start a bachelor's degree - Université de Pau et des Pays de l'Adour - 2012-Today English Literature and Civilisation studies, with Spanish as a main option (Particularly passionate with Linguistics, Translation and Literature) Meanwhile: working during summer and weekends in a bookshop during the day, and in a restaurant in the evening. During the week, I provide English tutoring at home to two children of five and seven, and to a lady of about fourty studying Anthropology.

I'm passionate about

Linguistics and Languages Words and Cultures Literature and Books Music of all kinds People of all kinds The Brain Anything worth a mystery... Everything, actually

An idea worth spreading

"Each true occasion is a Hapax: it involves no precedent, nor repetition, no foretaste nor aftertaste; it is not foreshadowed by any precursory sign and is never met by a "second time.'" V. Jankélévitch (clumsy attempt of translation)
