ABOUT ME
I'm a young guy, 27 years old who's now not working. I spent last 10 years to study and then to work as Computer engineer in a bank.
I leaved 17 years near Atlantic Ocean in La Baule in France, then I moved to Lyon for a year in 2000 to get my Bachelor, and finished in Paris for the last 9 years.
During these 9 years in Paris I first have been a student for 5 years as Computer Engineer. I had there my first experience in London where I spent 3 month. Our mission? To find a job and spend some time there to improve our english. I was working as bar tender there at "The Motion" near trafalgar square. Such a nice job to discover nights in London. A really nice experience that I will certainly try again somewhere else.
I then started to work in bank a computer engineer in Paris. After 5 years I decided to leave and try an other experience. To travel and live as people live in their country to find out what I really care, love ... and so what I really expect to do next.
I now want to discover something else, let the French system behind me and enjoy life simply all around the world. Have new friends, find new cultures, and see more about how is really runs around the globe and especially in Asian and South america Countries.
This is a really little summary of what I did during my life. I love sport and especially VTT, Bodyboarding and snowboarding. I love music and try now to learn guitar, I love meeting people and spend some time with them. And I'm sure people love it too. I'm well in my brain but I need more. I don't know what yet, but I hope to find out during this travel.
PHILOSOPHY
Leave your life and don't hesitate.
Enjoy life, stay friendly, feet on the ground, optimistic and life will be better.

Interests
Music : I learn guitar for now a year and a half and hope one day to show that I could learn it by myself.
Cinema, theatre, and sport events are my favorites hobbies on evenings, but I really love to do some sport. I practice VTT, snowboarding, ski, body boarding during my days off. A quite hard when you live in paris, but there are really nice spot in France.
Holidays and travel: I mostly traveled with friends in Europe. I've been to NY and Tucson too. But I now travel by myself since november 2010 in South East Asia. I really enjoy it and now will fly to South America.
