Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to every kind of music. I really like everything. But I have a preference for jazz, reggae and blues.
I'm a fan of fantasy novel, that make me dream! My life is a fantasy! (J.K Rowling, Tolkien, Bernard Werber, Pierre Botero, Alessandro Bofa etc...)

Oh, and also, I'm the biggest fan of the Disney universe of the world. just that. They inspired me and gave me the taste of travel since I was little kid.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well ... for me, the simple fact of having a beating heart, eyes that see, a nose that can smell, fingers that can touch and ears that hear is incredible. So I can say that the extraordinary thing I did was to be alive.

I rescued a dog who was lost in the street. she was beaten, lean, hungry, frightened and unhappy. After several years, she has become my best friend, she is happy and healthy. It was an extraordinary experience for me.

My wife and I also sold out and left everything we had. House, jobs, etc. to do a world trip by Hitch hicking for 14 month. We crossed 21 countries and hitchhikked 61 000 km.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you to play the guitar and the accordion. I can also play a duet with you if you are musician. I can teach you the principles of permaculture!
I can also open your mind to the world of nature and medicine plants!
I would like to know the local food, customs and traditions of your country. I'm very curious!

We had a big project during this trip: Browse the ecofarms of the countries crossed to work and help, to learn, teach and share permaculture techniques. We have plans to build a self-sufficient eco-village in a near future in France.
