CURRENT MISSION
Discovering the world and meeting new people, live my life to the fullest and write a book about it one day.

ABOUT ME
I love discovering new places and listening to other people talking about their lives, their adventures and their projects. For me, trying to know each other and to understand different cultures is the key to living a better life, maybe even a key to make this world a better place.
When I travel, I like to be at ease with my planning, usually I have an overall vision of what I'd like to do but I'm always very flexible and open to changes. My experience is that the best moments just happen unexpectedly, all you have to do is open your eyes and ears and be ready to welcome what comes.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Breath-taking views in the Rocky Mountains

Being the first white man to explore some Chinese ethnic villages in hilly western China

Dancing all night long at a Serbian Trumpet Festival in Guca

Winning a hitchhiking race from Yverdon, Switzerland, to Athens, Greece

Working on a farm in the Swiss Alps and starting my days by feeding baby cows with milk – the best job I've ever done !

Managing to prepare myself in one hour for an unexpected trip to New York, transit to the airport included (forgot pants)

Observing whales in northern Québec, they're amazing creatures !

Painting on the walls in one of Rio de Janeiro's "difficult" districts with a group of amazing social workers

Managing to travel 60 km on reserve fuel in the Andes, looking for a gas station (OK, this was a close one)

教，学，和分享

Uhh difficult question… I guess I always have the attitude to learn, rather than to teach. Openness maybe ? Plus I like to share stories and jokes. Or anything you'd like to learn in French or Romansh.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I live in a studio flat situated in the heart of Biel/Bienne, Switzerland’s biggest bilingual city (Swiss German and French). You can sleep at my place and if I’m not working, I will be most happy to show you my beautiful city, the old square, the lakeside and some great bars. I love my region and have a lot of stories and ideas how to let you feel its spirit :-)
