One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I swam to cameroon, from Chad without any documents. I was bitten by a sea turtle. I drove drive from Vancouver in Canada to Chiapas in southern mexico, stopping on the gulf of mexico on the way. I went the 5 games of Colombia during the world cup, and went on national television dancing serrucho. I live in in Geneva, on the french side of the border. I have lived in France, Canada ( english and french, east and west), and switzerland.
