About Me

CURRENT MISSION

New Challenge in my life : hitchike Argentina to Alaska..Travelling and learn about the different culture and people from all around the world.

ABOUT ME

I am a French guy. I live in the north of France, I have a little sister and a dispersed family in France. I decided to change my life and live my dream. So 3 years ago I quite my job and bought a backpack to discover the world. I've been 1 year in Australia then I traveled Indonesia to France almost all the way by the land (hitchhiking and public transport). After that I stayed one year in France to take care of children in difficulty, I made with them an association and 6 teenagers and I, went to Poland . I've been back in Australia in between 2017 and 2018 and since last november I decided to hitchhike all the way between Argentina to Alaska ( a girlfriend will join me in Panama. For me the best in travelling is to meet people. That's why I'm a member of couchsurfing..I like spend time with my friends, I think i'm a funny guy ;)

PHILOSOPHY
We have only one life
Sharing with others and they will share with you ...
Be positive, Be generous.
Love everybody with the same love.
