One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 22 years old, I make a tour of Europe on foot with a friend. Only on foot, and boat hitchhiking. 18 month, 9000 km on foot, 15 countries !

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm involved in participatory plant breeding and seed saving. I share seeds (wheat, rye, barley, clover...). I teach organic farming and wheat breeding sometimes for students and other farmers.
