CURRENT MISSION

growing up by discovering new countries and meeting nice people

ABOUT ME

I'm french and I live in Guatemala for 4 years, being a consultant for several NGO, and teaching at the University. I had different professionnal activities before, musician, social worker, teacher and I travelled as much as possible, first in Africa, Asia and America. Always interested to know some new countries, meet new persons, share points of view, experiences and various ways of thinking. I live in Guatemala since July, 2014

PHILOSOPHY

I try to remain opened to the diversity and not to judge with prejudices. I try not to live with certainties and to learn to live with the doubt. I try to remain opened to the questioning. I love the life and I think the diversity is one of the most important characteristic of it.
