CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Almost 6 years ago, i quit everything. My flat, my job... my life.
In fact it was not my life, but the life that the system want me to take...have a "good" job, have a house with wife, children, credit for the house, cars, my 5 weeks holidays a year... but i don't really felt happy, i couldn't see any futur for me on that way of life.
So i did a first trip in Lao, south east asia. It was like a revelation not only about this beautiful country and people. I decided to travel when i was back home. Then i worked for a year to save money, not so much and i went to a country of my dream, Japan. I went there for 8 months, my best trip, ever!
Then i went to, others countries, i felt so in peace with myself during travels.
I like meeting new thinking, new way if life, different way to cook, eat, drink (kind of same!!!) but the most, people and nature.
Just walk (ride also) the road..

My parents are separate since i was born, i have 3 brothers and 2 sisters. My dad is born in France but his parents were from Italia.
My mother is born in Normandy, my grand parents were born there too but my grand mother told me that we probably have Irish origin. I love that melting pot of nationality it gives people something different...for me it's a wealth.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in nature an humanity, Life is an amazing experience that we have the right to live, in repect for all kind of life being...
I have decided to travel because i felt in jail in our society, i don't want to discover the world and the humanity when i will be retreat, old and tired by my slave-work-life, and even that it's hard to find our own way... but possible!
