CURRENT MISSION

cycling or death! (Actually cycling around SE Asia)

ABOUT ME

Well I'm a french guy, travelling with my girlfriend since september 2011. We started cycling in Saigon, and plan to go to myanmar and india after.
so don't have a couch right now, but definetely have one when i'll settle down again.

About me in few words: like to relax, discover, good food, music (world music, jazz, reggae,...) cook (it's not a lie), good wine (cheap wine is fine), and of course travel! it's simply the best way to see things differently... and there's always a crazy story or situation that make you think "this won't be my last trip for sure".

PHILOSOPHY

always be open to new ideas, you never know... everybody has something to teach you.
and keep cool and positive, in this world of stress and scepticism!

how welcoming and helping poor people can be when you ask for something... really something to learn there

Teach, Learn, Share
