Overview
About Me
Being presently not in my own home, I cannot host anyone for now :-D
I just finished my PhD in Lyon (France) that was about how to convert biochemically wheat straw residues into ethanol for gas-powered cars.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Rather than ONE AMAZING thing, (funny/sad/weird) little anecdotes:
- I've slept in the streets, on a bench, in Italy, after a professional mission in Trieste, one night before my departure, penniless, credit-card-less.
- I've unintentionally "landed" on a motorway by bicycle and made a few hundreds of metres before realising something wrong was going on, in Finland (reversed colour code for finnish road signs ?).
- I intended to learn finnish XD.
- I traveled more than 200 km within a day (and ~500km in three days) by bicycle to see whales and discover great places in Québec.
Teach, Learn, Share
I could bring you basic stuff on music, permacultural philosophy, botany, quite a few science topics, especially on energies or material sciences.
What I Can Share with Hosts
My love for life, nature and plants. I could also share seeds to plant and food.
