About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to travel to as many contries as possible to discover the beauties the world has to offer and the wonderful people that it hosts.

ABOUT ME

I was born in Guadeloupe, have lived in France for two years, in England for a year, Ireland for two years and Martinique for 7 years. From living abroad I kept the love of discovering new cultures and meeting up with people from all over the world. I love sharing with others and find great personal enrichment from sharing with people from different horizons.

PHILOSOPHY

I live to admire the beauty of life under all its forms, especially the beauty of nature. That's why I love living here in the Caribbean, because it's one of the most beautiful regions of the earth. I cannot stand injustice or the violation of human rights, and whenever I can I am willing to give my time and contribute to building a better world.
