ABOUT ME
I grew up in Brittany (west part of France), on the Atlantic coast. After highschool, I have spent a year studying in London before joining the French merchant navy academy. I have worked one year as deck officer and engine officer at Brittany ferries. I have always been passionated about finding solutions to all kind of issues, especially environmental ones. During my studies I took part in several projects to serve environmental causes beginning with soap recycling for Moroccan children up to designing eco-friendly ships or building low tech fresh water generator for developing countries.
I am very optimistic about future and life in general. I am a rather adventurous guy, always keen on discovering new places and people. My dream is to set up a maritime expedition to clean the plastic on the coasts and in the ocean.
PHILOSOPHY
“You only live once, but if you do it right, once is enough.”
