About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Save the world !

ABOUT ME

I love traveling, after one year around the world in 2008 (South America, Asia, Kilimanjaro) and the Santiago de Compostella Trail in 2009 (2 months and 1623km only walking !), I've spent 9 months in Australia in 2011/2012, and I'm now back in France to start a new job, as an IT teacher, which gives me the opportunity of traveling around France and a bit further.
June 2015 update : Back from a 3 weeks hike accross the Pyrénées... awesome mountain trip !
