About Me

ABOUT ME

I think they would say that I very calm and curious (even if sometimes I can go crazy :-). I want to see, try, discover everything. When I decide to do something, I never give up. I do it.

Interests

As everybody here, I like to travel, meet people, learn about their culture, habits, way of life ... I dream to have a big sailboat and sail along the coasts, stay few months in a place... and keep on sailing to discover the world !!!

I'm crazy about motorcycle. I used to ride on circuit. I raced in a french championship in 2008, 2009 and 2010. I never miss a race of the motorcycle world championship.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was on an small thaï island. I was snorkeling in the middle of multicolor fishes. I swam back to the beach and met a local guy. He told me that if I wanted to see harmless sharks, I had to swim 100m toward the south of the island. I did it. I swam, swam... as described by the guy, I briefly observed 3 little blacktip sharks. But, sharks immediately disappeared. I kept on swimming to see more of those sharks. But none of those sharks appeared again. I decided to go back on the beach, made a u-turn and : WHAAAA !!! I saw a 3-meter long shark. It was close to me : about 5 meters. This shark was different, it was much more bigger and entirely grey. I didn't knew if it was aggressive or not ? I remained calm and saw the shark moving away. Great sensations !!!
Later, I learned that this shark was not dangerous.
