I was born in the middle of France, but moved a lot for my studies in Lille, Paris, Maastricht (Netherlands), and Cambridge (UK). I now ended up in LA. I Love the weather here.

I am a happy, driven, and passionate person. I want to enjoy every single bit of life with people I love.

I care about kindness with others, honesty, intelligence, knowledge, curiosity, and creativity.

My life consist of alternating between work, creative activities and/or sport.

I love my work, and I make sure to have a life besides it.

Small things of life that make me happy over and over again:
- sunsets at the beach,
- making latte art
- rollerblading on the boardwalk
- making people smile

The sports I'm into at the moment are volley-ball, rock climbing, rollerblade skating, jumping stilts, surfing, ping pong, biking, swimming, skiing. I'm always looking for more sport buddies. I would love to do more sailing, tennis and horse back riding.

I think browsing wikipedia is something really cool. I go through a large variety of topics, for instance neuropsychology, history, computer science, politics, sociology, etc...

Since a few years, I love to dance. I sometimes start my day with a dance-out of 15 minutes. I can do basic tango/walz/salsa.

I always have a few creative activities going on, for instance:

Photography/movies:
I built a 3d slow motion camera. For instance I made this video of burning man that you can see both in 2d or 3d:

I enjoy the creativity of Burning Man] and will probably go this year too.

I play the piano. It's nice to have a piano at work!

I love going on excursions in the countryside. I enjoy nature a lot, since I was born in a tiny place in the middle of France. I'm a tree huger and a star voyeur. I have owned a telescope since I'm 15. Now I have one in Europe and one on the west coast.

I sometimes host people from couchsurfing, which gives me the opportunity to meet people from all over the world, with different cultures and different points of view.

- Making home made icecreams and crepes
- volley ball, skiing, roller skating
- building custom made speakers
- astronomy, programming
- rocking the electric slide on the dancefloor.

Visually, it might be my long hair, and phonetically, my french accent.

Book that I read recently and loved : Novels from Stefen Zweig, Good Omens, Supplement au voyage de bougainville (Diderot), Da vinci code, Predictably Irrational, (too many)...
I'm now going to read "her lover".
I'm looking for a good book about neuropsychology, do you know one?

Movies : Amelie, Fight club, American history X, Matrix, Big fish, Inception, Memento (too many)... As you can see with the short list, in general I love movie which bring some new ideas on the table.

Music : Love Pink Floyd when I want a relaxing background music, love Renaud when I want to get energized at home, love Mano Negra when I'm with friends, Caravan Palace and electro-jazz when I want to dance alone like crazy, Bregovic when I want something that touches me. Oh, and Tango music to dance too :)
I built my own speakers, and often just close my eyes and let my self be transported, until I have go get up and dance.

Food : A bit of everything, but mostly French, Thai and Vietnamese. I make and eat a lot of icecreams.

Reading, democracy, science, friends, sport, and good food.

How to improve democracy. How to make new art projects. Love.

So either going out of town (san francisco, skiing, camping, climbing) or going out in Los Angeles.

I think OK cupid should also be awesome to find great friends, so I really meant it when I checked the "looking for new friends" box.
