WHO ARE WE?
We are Alex and Oceane, born in Nice (South of France) and traveller-addicts.
7 years ago we had a dream: to go on a journey around the world to live as locals people and discover new cultures!

But before that, we had to finish our studies in Lyon. Even if we enjoyed living several months abroad (London, Edinburgh, New York) and our many trips (Europe, Canada, South Africa, etc.) we entered the active life in 2015 in Paris and put aside our dream. Alex was social entrepreneur, he sought to solve Social and environmental challenges through the power of entrepreneurship. Océane worked on Human Resources by becoming a recruitment consultant.

We both enjoy meet new people and exchange about cultural differences. Open-minded and involve in many project we loved to travel around the world.
In January 2017 we decided to fulfil our dream by launching « Into the Dream », an adventure to meet the dreams everywhere in the world!

WHAT IS INTO THE DREAM?
“Into the Dream” is a World Tour of two years in order to discover dreams all over the world.
It aims to fight against social determinisms that prevent many individuals from realizing their dreams. During our world tour we will meet ordinary people with extraordinary dreams in twenty countries around the world.
We are convicted that "every one can achieve his dreams regardless his social environment or his background". Our mission is to re-connect people to their deep aspiration in order to enable them to achieve theirs dreams.
To demonstrate and spread this message, we portray dreamers around the world, communicate on social networks and organize inspirational events in different countries in order to move individuals around the theme of the realization of his dreams. To find out, it's here: http://bit.ly/facebookITD
