About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discovering West Africa

ABOUT ME

I studied social Geography and I travel as much as I can. I'm kind of a quiet guy and I enjoy meeting people. I love to play basketball and hiking. I spent a year in Sweden thanks to the Erasmus program, it was amazing to live up north! I completed my Master degree in Paris, the wonderfull city. After one year of working and travelling (a bit in Europe and a big trip in Northern America), I went back to University in Montpellier, where I studied land planning and rural development. I ended with an intership in Morocco.
After two year and a half in Gabon where I worked on forestry planning and cartography, I live now in Guinea.

I want to take the chance to discover our world and couch surfing is the best way to do it :)

PHILOSOPHY

Happiness is true only when it's shared

Ne pas perdre sa vie à la gagner
