How did you come to do this job?

I am an ex responsible on Human Resources who decided to go outside or inside the water :) I have created the stand up paddle association, then I have teached more than 1000 people to surf with SUP ! I began at Lille and then I came to Paris. I really want to make cities fun ! At 10 minutes from Paris, you can live something special, come on !

People say I am always smiling and happy ! But I just enjoy my life.

To know about you, apart from your job?

I also love bikes !

Life on a journey

For you, what is a successful sea trip?

It is just when people enjoy and come back the next week. With beginners, I try to avoid fall in water ;)

Relax, learning, pleasure
