About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm a father, my son (born 2012) is both french and german.

ABOUT ME

I have a baby born on july 14th, 2012. He is now living in north Germany (Pellwrom island, north sea), so I'm sometimes off my location to visit him and his mum.

I leave France in february 2008. In june 2010 I have travelled in 35+ countries and 60 000 km without flying. I get a lot of stories to share : europe,Middle-east, Africa...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent 5 days in Roma in february 2008 by travelling with students of architecture. We were 9 camping cars driving around roma to meet gypsies peoples to learn about their travel and life in italy. we eat and live with them during this time, wich was a really good experience.
I travell back from Tema, Ghana, to Amsterdam, nederland, by cargo ship during 10 days :)
