CURRENT MISSION Giving back what was given to me for 5 years ABOUT ME I am a 48 year old Frenchman, married, father of 2 kids. I have been working in the development sector for about 20 years, first with Monaco-based NGO "Peace and Sport" and then through TRAVEL WITH A MISSION, a non-profit organization I founded in 2013. I love traveling (116 countries visited in my life). From 2003 to 2008, I toured the world by hitchhiking (www.worldbyhitchhiking.com), which was an amazing life experience. I have written 2 books and made movies. I started with couchsurfing when there were about 4000 members. There are quite a few others now. I was an ambassador at the start. PHILOSOPHY "Life is not a restaurant but a buffet, stand up and help yourself"
