About Me

After working 4 years in a corporate job I ended up hating, i decided to go back to the basics, to what makes me truly happy... Travelling! I have been doing so for a year and a half now, and I have been happy ever since :)
So far, on this trip, I've been to the USA, Mexico, Guatemala, El Salvador and I am currently in Canada.

I haven't been really much into parties lately. I'd rather be with just a few people at once, and have meaningful conversations. I enjoy being outdoors, I am definitely more a nature person than a city person. But every now and then I love getting lost in an unknown city, discover the local artists and the local food (and beers ^^). I have a passion for analogue photography, I always carry a camera with me. I hope you will let me take your portrait :)
