About Me

J'ai écrit ce profil en anglais au moment où je bourlinguais à travers le monde.
Si vous voulez des informations en français, n'hésitez pas à me contacter.

CURRENT MISSION

Change...

ABOUT ME

I always find it hard (and a bit boring) to have to describe myself in a small formated text box, but...
Let's say i'm a life loving, positive thinking guy, who believes in alternative ways of living and is convinced that everyone of us is responsible for the changes we want to see happening in our world.

After 10 years working in business development without being nourished the way i needed, i decided to quit it all and totally change my life in order to make it match my expectations and follow the values that are important to me: simplicity, autonomy, sharing, freedom.

After spending 1 year with my wife and kids working on organic farms in the South of France, we now have the project to install ourselves and create our own autonomous place to be able to produce our own food and energy and welcome people that are interested to experiment new ways of living.

PHILOSOPHY

"Be the change you want to see in the World" Ghandi
