ABOUT ME

I'm JB and if you'd like to get to know me, just meet me! Well, I'm kind, laid back and easygoing with a broad grin who likes simple things, hang out, pub-crawl, partying and listen to good music during concerts and festivals.
I'm currently in Bordeaux, working, saving up money and dreaming about another place, wilder, quieter with uncrowded perfect waves...

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worry, take the life easy
