✅ What I’m able to do, skills & stuff
💼 I’ve been working in digital communication for over 15 years
As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to work on Internet. On the one hand a social media and brand content specialist, on the other a professional blogger.

👀 A little more about myself & what drives me?
Well, I like
– sharing on torrefacteur.co my favorite cultural, artistic and social inspirations,
– listening to independent music and discuss with labels and festivals that make it live,
– playing music and guitar (I learned music and the saxophone at the National Music Academy),
– watching New Hollywood movies at home and go to the cinema as much as I can.
🎶 Hey, wanna listen some music? There’s a #weekly ᕕ(^▽^)ᕗ ♪ ♫
