CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

My friends would probably say I am a very sociable and open minded person, curious about many things.

I have been an extensive traveller for the past 20 years, for both work, and in personal life. Outside France, I lived in Japan, USA and UK.

I am used of meeting and interacting with people from different cultures, background, age group, orientation etc... and I love it. I only struggle with narrow mindedness and extreme point of views...
