CURRENT MISSION

Life is good, enjoy!

ABOUT ME

I'm a French globe trotter, working in Mobile Money, one of the most fascinating sector I know of. We are basically helping financial inclusion by allowing unbanked to turn their mobile phone into a bank account/credit card. I work mainly in Africa and I am on the road about 2 weeks/month.
I have studied in Canada for 4 years and did my master in Paris (Sciencespo). Lived abroad for about 6 years and now that I am back in France, I am planning to be as welcoming as all these wonderful people I met along the way. Welcome!

PHILOSOPHY

Uhm... hard topic, once more! Well, I consider that human beings are just too "stupid" yet(not developed enought) to understand the meaning of their presence on earth. For me, we just don't know and we are not even close to know. So the only thing we can do is to try to make earth the best place as possible for the next generations so that they will be as well prepare as possible to understand "why".

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Discovering CS was just one of the best things that happened to me! I surfed quite a lot of couches while i was in Asia and it turned out to be absolutly AWSOME. I'll never forget the great people, and now friends, i came to meet with CS...

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: I love Tim Burton! Last movie I saw was "hot fuzz" a comedy with a tipical british humor that I really liked! I also love cartoons but don't say it! ;)
Books: just too many great one! I loved the Millenium books, Yasmina Khadra is one of my favorite autor with Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt. I also love "travel book" like "Africa trek" or "line zero".
Music: almost everything!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

hum...Now i can say the most amazing i have done was to live one month on a desert island in the Philippines! beside this,I hitchiked 12days from Paris to Valencia and back without any money.
Or maybe crossing illegally the mexican border with a pirogue! ;)

Teach, Learn, Share

For me, a real traveller should always have something to play with or entertain local population(especially kids). It's the best way to be welcome anywhere.

It can be music instrument, songs,a simple ball, games,etc. for me, what really worked everywhere is magic tricks! Some are easy to learn and will make you accepted almost anywhere...
