About Me

CURRENTLY

We are currently in Europe after 9 months traveling around the world : We visited Southeast Asia, New Zealand and South America !! Next thing will be Australia for a WHV in November !

Antoine:

BEFORE TRAVELING

For a living, I used to work as a civil engineer, doing all kinds of calculation about bridges construction, buildings and infrastructures.

I really like urbanism and the way of creating utopian cities. This is why I'm really into movies like Dark City, Blade Runner, Metropolis or Brazil... and many more !

Kirsty:

BEFORE TRAVELING

I love travelling, sightseeing, chat, sport, music events, culture, meeting new people and learning new things!
