About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get the most experience(s).

ABOUT ME

I am a calm guy, who likes to meet new people. My friends would probably say immediatly that I love biking.
I am very sociable, althought I sometimes need some time for myself.
I am also a very organised guy, but it doesn't make me more uptight, I just always make room for the unexpected.
I get along with pretty much everybody and I have a smile on my face most of the time.

Interests

I am a bike lover, I cannot leave for a long time without having some sort of bike. Right now I have a fixed gear bike that I use to go to school. I also did some competitive cycling for a year.

I love being in big cities where I can just melt into crowds of people, but I also love going into wide open spaces just to disconnect with reality and contemplate nature.

I also like just chilling during meals, I come from a family where eating well and taking our time during meals is important, and I appreciate this alot.

I also love music, I like listening to alternative rock, punk, jazz, electronic music.

I like joking around, life too short to be serious ;)

I am currently studying engineering at the University of Sherbrooke in Canada but I am presently in France for an exchange program to a school called l'EPF École d'ingénieurs for a year.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Everytime I go on bike, whether its the first time I go for the ride or the hundredth time, I always feel that awe. Biking is just seeing everything from a different angle and sometime a boring road when you are in a car could become awesome on a bike. Its just a matter of perpsective.

Another awe moment was when I climbed Mount Washington in New Hampshire in the US. I climbed it in winter and I just loved it. It was intense (-44°C at the top) but it was amazing. I recommend to anyone to do this climb.

Going to New York was also an awe moment, I just loved how the city moved and felt I fit in perfectly. I would go back anytime.

But now I am in Europe and I know these awe moments will probably be beaten quickly, Europe being an awesome continent. But I will always remember these moments as great.
