About Me

CURRENT MISSION

creating the life I wanna live

ABOUT ME

(2009) I'd like to believe in a better world.
(2013) I now believe that WE can create a better world . “Be the change that you wish to see in the world.” Gandhi
In this world people would help eachother and would not try to rise up by pushing down others.
(2018) I now work hard at changing things building an oasis or écoavillage with 8 other person in Brittany. I also study kind of ostéopathie called Somato-psycho pedagogy (soma means body)

I wanted to discover the real world through my eyes so I travelled following mind and people met on the road.
Now I found out that I did not even know amazing places 30 km away from home. Imagination starts to be the only limit.

PHILOSOPHY

No religion but the expectation that, somehow all of this has a sens.

"When the Last Tree Is Cut Down, the Last Fish Eaten, and the Last Stream Poisoned, You Will Realize That You Cannot Eat Money"

"Quand le dernier arbre sera abattu, la derniere riviere polluée, le dernier animal tué et le dernier poisson capturé, alors le visage pale réalisera que l'argent ne se mange pas. "

"Sans cesse le progrès (technique), roue au double engrenage, fait marcher quelque chose en ecrasant quelqu'un" Victor Hugo

I did not find the translation for the previous one but I would translate it as:
"as double gears, progress makes incessantly working something while squizzing someone" (if someone as better translation please share).

While working for the European Union, I've been traveling to some amazing remote area (rural electrifiation through renewable energy).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I tried skydiving for my 25th birthday. thanks to my friends!

I shared a wave with a dolphin while surfing :-)))

I had a plane emergency landing in Acores in 2009 while I was crossing the Atlantic Ocean. Now I try to take what present life gives to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach: salsa(to beginners ), photovoltaic phenomenon, drums, I can teach freediving (plongée en apnée) up to 30 m deep and advanced equalization technics. I also can teach basics of greenwood carving (with axe and knife)
