Hi! I'm Antoine..I was born in Paris, France and moved to the United States when I was 6. I swam throughout my youth and I also played basketball and European football.

In 2017, I solo backpacked across Europe for 8 weeks which took to Spain, France, Netherlands, Germany, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Austria, Italy, and then back to Barcelona. Meeting and connecting with fellow travelers in hostels was truly incredible.

In early 2018, I spent two weeks in South East Asia hitting up Hong Kong, Thailand, and Cambodia.

What's next? Summer 2018 plans include: Iceland, Ireland, France, the Baltics, and Sweden.
