About Me

About to travel across Costa Rica (and probably other countries of center and south america ) with my bicycle !

I've been travelling for 3 years (New Zeland, Australia, USA, Canada), and had my first biking experience this summer (2017) and I Loved it !
From New York to Portland, +6000km with a group called Green Riders - Good Deeds on bikes, leaded by Rob Greenfield, it took 2,5 months to cross from East to West and try to make people's life better everywhere we stopped on the way.

I want to keep on traveling with my bicycle, doing good deeds on the way ! My next adventure is in South America and I'm very excited !

----
I wanted a big break from my life back in France, (used to be project manager in a web agency for the last 5 years) so I left for New Zealand with a Working Holiday Visa in sept 2015 (first big travel on my own, never too late :D) and I loved it ! I've been travelling before for all around the world but it was the first Time by myself, for one year, and sooo far away from home !
Then I did the WHV in Australia, very different from New Zealand but very nice too !

I want to keep on travelling, discover the world and the people, travellers and locals :)
