About Me

CURRENT PROJECT:
Starting the end of September 2018, I'll do a 1 year road-trip around South America and my first step will be Colombia! The goal is not to visit as simple tourist but as human being who want to meet new people, understand the local cultures, improve myskills, share great moments and feelings. Of course, I want to see amazing landscapes, have a lot of fun, make new super friends too! But I also want to help people in their projects, be/feel useful, helpful and share knowledge and experiences. =)

ABOUT ME
I'm a 28 years old positive and open-minded guy from France. I'm interested in the intercultural issues, languages and meeting new people!

I love traveling around the world and meeting new cultures and people.Through my different experiences I always try to learn about myself and meet essencial facts.
Lately, I've been working as a Youth Worker and Project Manager in a French non-profit organization. This allowed me to gain professional and personal experiences by working abroad and getting to know people from all around Europe and the World!
Within this organization, I was in charge of supporting youths -in particular disandvaged young people from 18 to 30 -in their professional and social inclusion through International Mobility Projects. I was also monitoring and coordinating local and European projects in the social and cultural fields.
