About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm easy going, talkative and curious.

I've been travelling quite a while since the first time on CS in 2008. I lived almost 3 years in CIS countries and enjoyed a lot learning russian language and culture.

I found myself while travelling alone in Peru/Bolivia when I was 17, call it my inaugural trip. Where i really understood the values of life and how people are different.

Hope that we could be back to my gd pa's time when they always had a meal and a bed ready for the traveller.

And...open minded, dreamer, patient

PHILOSOPHY

carpe diem. see life as a gift and nature as the origin of life, therefore protect nature as much as I can! La vie est belle, le monde est grand.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

One of my best memory is about travelling with the Touareg people during the rain season at low paste and within a whole new culture and area code. Sahara, I'll never forget what I saw there.
Another one would be the kids that I met during the "Urban Generation" project that I put up in order to give camera away to kids for them to take pictures of their city.
