In march I'll be going by rails and seas to Crete for a study trip in the framework of my architecture master's graduation project. I'm planning to pass by Genova, Pesaro, Urbino, Bari, Patras, Athens, Heraklion and Chania.
Looking forward seing you on the way !

Namaste, wonderful humans 🫶

I've finally returned to France with a heart full of stories and a mission to spread a bit of that legendary traveler's hospitality I've received during my many years of globetrotting.

It has been a few years now that I embraced meditation 🧘🏼 (two hours daily, yet still no levitation skills...), gave up alcohol, drugs, bid adieu to social media. So far, my journey on this planet has been amazing. 🪷

So, if you're into heart-to-hearts, sharing laughs, and maybe a bit of soul-searching, we can make this journey memorable together 🙏❤️

🎶
I have very eclectic tastes, I listen from classical music to rap, reggae, jazz, soul, rock, blues, funk, ambient, trance, oriental...
I love to listen FIP radio !
I do not play any instrument but I love to listen to live music (and dance maybe ?)

🛖
I'm seeing myself as an architect and my vison of the profession is evolving and enriching along side with my studies. What I can say is that bringing sustainability and peace in the built environment is one of my main concerns. I'd like to dediacte my work for social and ecological justice. I'm not really interested in making architecture for pure aesthetic but rather try to enrich communities and host life in harmony with it's environment. I belive that architecture can really positively impact population and empower the most vulnerable ones. Natural, local and bio-sourced materials like earth, wood, bamboo, straw, stones are my favorite ingredients.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
