About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Get off the grid

ABOUT ME

I'm 24 and taking a year off to explore a bit more of what the world has to offer. I will be doing a 3 months roadtrip in the USA and Canada this summer, including several festivals along the way.

I grew up in the south of France and then moved to Paris for my studdies. I used to be a game designer because I liked the idea of creating entertainment for a living. Now I focus on what I like the most: road trips! I also go to the Boom festival and Burning Man every year.

I don't drink, I don't smoke, I'm an easygoing guest; respectful and quiet when necessary. I enjoy the company of pets, we always had dogs and cats at home.

Ask me anything!

PHILOSOPHY

Do a little more of what feels good, and a little less of what doesn't.

"Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover."

- Mark Twain

Teach, Learn, Share

Willing to teach anything I know; may it be French lessons, roadtrip with little money, snowboarding basics, what's going on in Nevada in late August, coding languages, whatever.

Would like to learn something about everything, and everything about something.
