CURRENT MISSION

Feel the world

ABOUT ME

After a three years world trip which took me to about 40 countries, I am now since 4 years leaving in Paris. It was a great experience which gave me a strong feeling of humanity.

Quickly about myself, originally from Morocco, my family moved in France when I was 2 years old. I am a mix between Berber (first people who were leaving in north Africa!) and Arabic (crazy fellows) with a French education (and not anymore the bloody French accent!).

Used to party a lot, bit less now. Enjoy good talks with friends or fellow travelers, funky people, original bridges between cultures, I try to do humanitarian work every time I can, I love foreign jokes (I will have to tell you some hilarious one I got on the way)...

PHILOSOPHY

More I think less I understand... so I stopped thinking.
