CURRENT MISSION

Let's be realistic, demand the impossible!" - Che Guevara

ABOUT ME

We're a cute couple...well cute...everything is relative so... ; ) but we're two curious persons interested to learn a little more about the world and his mysteries!!!!

Marilou is an ecologist who had just finished her master degree in environment. She's interesting in biodiversity and always looking to learn more about environment and NGOs all around the world.

I'm mostly a globetrotter but I'm presently working for the Cirque du Soleil on the show OVO on tour around Australia and after that, Asia. It's a good way to work and travel at the same time!:)

PHILOSOPHY

''Life isn't about keeping score. It's not about how many people call you and it's not about who you've dated, are dating, or haven't dated at all. It isn't about who you've kissed, what sport you play, or which guy or girl likes you. It's not about your shoes or your hair or the color of your skin or where you live or go to school. In fact, it's not about grades, money, clothes, or colleges that accept you or not. Life isn't about if you have lots of friends, or if you are alone, and it's not about how accepted or unaccepted you are. Life just isn't about that. But life is about who you love and who you hurt. It's about how you feel about yourself. It's about trust, happiness, and compassion. Life is about avoiding jealousy, overcoming ignorance, and building confidence. It's about what you say and what you mean. It's about seeing people for who they are and not what they have. Most of all, it is about choosing to use your life to touch someone else's in a way that could never have been achieved otherwise. These choices are what life's about.''

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

''Half of life is fucking up - the other half is dealing with it.''

''Somewhere along the course of life, you learn about yourself and realize there should never be regrets, only a lifelong appreciation of the choices you've made.''

Living with an indigenous community in Bolivia...
Participating at the Kumbha mela...
Diving with a whale shark...

A lot of things that is so much simpler but so much fun as well like have a great dinner in great company!

Teach, Learn, Share

Hum!?! euh ... ''SHARE'' ...

Sharing experiences with old friends and new ones as well.
We travelled a lot and had a lot of different experiences that we loved to share, but we're good listeners too...
