CURRENT MISSION

to live the life I have now and worry about the next one later

ABOUT ME

Although I don't believe in people describing their own self, I'll try to tell you more about me.
I spent most of my life in France, but...I lived one year in the States, 7 years in French Guiana, and 4 years in Mayotte. I believe the best (only ?) way to know something about a foreign country is to work there, so anytime we get the chance to do so is fine. In a lifetime one can't work in every country, so traveling is the "closest to the best" we can manage. People often wonder "why do you want to go there ?", I re-turn the question : "while the world is so big, why should I stay where I am ?"
We are a family of five, my 3 kids are grown-ups now. So as far as travelling is concerned, it's only the two of us now !
I'm a teacher for chidren with special educational needs.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is ever changing and the present moment will never be here again.
Make the most of now !
