My name is Julien, I am a young French engineer and have been living in Montreal (Canada) for 4 years. I will be travelling Central & South America from the end of february 2018, for at least 9 months. I will start with Guatemala, and aim at going south until Ushuaia! :) I studied mostly mechanical and energy engineering, and specialized in aerospace. I graduated 2 years ago and have worked in companies since. I quit in October 2017. But I now want to re-orientate my "career path" as I wish to use my competences to act against climate change/for the protection of the environment and thus work in the renewable energies/sustainable development field. I want to feel that my work is useful for the future of the society. I would also like to develop new knowledge/skills in permaculture, bio-agriculture in general, low-techs... I speak french (native language), english (bilingual); I can have basic conversation in Spanish for now but hope to improve down the road. I also have basic knowledge in German. I have been living in shared apartments for around 7 years, so I know and like how to live in a community. I have a lot of humour and always try to joke around and make puns.
