About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Allways visiting the world to visiting human and this amazing life, then discover myself ...

ABOUT ME

It's about 25 years i'm starting to travel but I ever try to not be as a "tourist".And the main for that is my (main) job : I sale on traditionals markets in France (provence, very beautyfull !)the handycrafts I import, with fairtrade (and not trade of fair ...)for sure, from every countries I've been. But easier and more pleasure for me to talk than writing ! But I lie a bit cause I love writing on my travels (when alone) external and internal in the same time !

PHILOSOPHY

Wouah ... so many influences... I may say someting like : every philsophys and even religions are right, at the begining and if they're all different, apparently, they all need each others to make THE answer, like a puzzle.
I am also very attract by the mystery of quantum science !

Roger Garaudy.
Barjavel Rene.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was lost in the Pacific Ocean and I saw like very big balls of green lights,like electrics, starts from the sea to the sky. It was far away, in the night.
And the birth of my sun !!
The great hymalaya. Big waves in meedle of south Pacific.
Free ride on fresh snow on snowboard. The peace of sunrise every where but specially in Provence with it's amaizing lights. Whales singing in Polynesian lagoon.
Big shark simulate attack in lost motu south polynesia.
Plants and trees of New Zealand. Cops killing 7 people in Bangkok for my first day and first time and first travel outside occident, 25 years ago... etc.

Teach, Learn, Share

I "only" have a quite good experience of life to stay outside as possible of the infernal system of societys, espacially occidental ones.As long as my experience of travel within. About 20.000 Miles of sailing experience.
I enjoy manual works too because when I build something, it's like I build myself ...

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love cooking as my life : mixing differents test and ingredients, ways to prepare the meals (for exemple a moroccan Tajine prepared as Thai meals with a touch of French ...). So if you like food experiences you're very welcome at our table. The thing is I would very appreciate from my side if you bring some food and drinks, anything you like.
