About Me

"Pattouta" is my nickname and I am known to be the most cheerful person in the room :D

My formula for a happy trip so far is:
The city + the people + the food + [Optionally, SCUBA DIVING if it's possible as it turns out that half of the country's history is sometimes hidden under the water)

I would love to show you around and give you a tour around the local monuments where I live currently (Paris) and feel free to ask me anything, anytime regarding your trip's preparations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

First day in there, I got lost in a rural place in the U.S. with a friend, we had no phone signals (we wanted to experience a no-tech trip so we didn't purchase local SIM cards and were always relying on free Wi-fi. Therefore, we didn't have 4G availble).
We didn't find our way back and the only thing we remembered was a railroad near the place where we were staying. So, our only way back was to follow that train's rail. So we walked a loooong distance in an area, that turned out later to be forbidden for people in the first place, as a security measure when the high-speed train passes. It got dark and we had to jump from altitudes I never thought human being were able to jump at. And when we arrived and got familiar with the place a few days after, we realized that it was very near and that we took a waaaaaaaaay too long path instead. We laughed so hard at how stupid we were.
