📍 Based in the Dominican Republic and working for a surf school. Was living in the Basq Country during 9 months before and will probably go back in 2025. I have been travelling and working in Mexico, Haiti, Cuba, Benin and Island when I was a journalist. Come from Digne les Bains, in the French Alps.

Curious and open-minded person, feel free to send me a message in English, Spanish or French.
