My name is Mély, I come from France. In October 2014, I quit my job, my apartment and sell my car to go in New-Zealand where I've spent 11 months. I decided to come back in september to surprise a friend for her wedding. Now I'm on the road to visit a part of Europe before to go to Australia the next january.
