About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I'm Antoine, I grew up in the countryside town of Drain, near the beautiful Loire valley and his vineyards. After a few years working in construction in France, I decided to go for a year in Montréal in 2008. I lived in a big share house, met a lot of wonderful people and discovered a new way of life, pretty far from my childhood in my little countryside town actually ! This experience in Canada changed many things in my vision of the life and gave me the envy to travel more, that's why after my come back in France, I started to save money to make a longer trip in more countries. In 2010, I was ready to hit the road !!! I begun my trip by Australia, then I went to New Zealand, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Indonesia, Mongolia and I finished by Russia. Along the way, I discovered scuba diving and loved it so I've had the idea to ally work and travel, that is why I decided to become a scuba diving instructor. In 2012 after 21 months of travel, I came back to France and get trained in scuba diving. I'm now looking forward to travel across the world again...
