About Me

Hi everyone,

Five years ago I travelled in Spain for 4 months (living in several organic farms), after I tried to come back in Belgium but I felt bored, so I left again, just with my backpack, doing hitchiking, going where the people I met lead me. I had a nomad life-style for deux years and half, I spend a lot of time in France and Spain, mainly. During some months, I had been living in a forest with other people to prevent lumberjacks to cut trees. That was a socio-political struggle. My motivations were political, and this experiment changed my way to see the society we're forced to live in. I've been experimenting other ways to live together, without boss, leader, orders, with very few of money, trying to respect as much as possible every living being (human or not), sharing a huge solidarity with people,...

So fuck capitalism, sexism, racism, homophobia, specism, etc... !!

Now I am back to Belgium again, but for a precise goal: I am studying in artistic school, in Brussels, for three years.
Once I will have finished those studies, I will leave again and keep traveling !
