About Me

I realize that it is more interesting to take the opposite direction to the one suggested, we are often better welcomed where we are not expected! I happen to appreciate more the quest of a purpose than the attraction in itself. I like taking public transport, asking the locals for information, observing people's daily lives and making comparisons between the cultures of the countries I visited.

I travel to confront my culture from North America to other cultures, to know different points of view on the world. My goal is to go to meet others and have real exchanges with them, learn to travel at a lower cost and push me out of the beaten track.

I like diversity: the countryside, the megalopolis, the nature, the small cities where I become the curiosity!, craftsmanship, authenticity and culture in all of its forms.

All destinations interest me, it's not the destination that makes the trip, but the way to approach it! I would like one day to travel over a period of several months.
