Born in France at the beginning of the 60's, I've been an ecological activist while a teenager before discovering computers, which kept me away from nature for a good 20 years.

I leaved old Europe to live in Laos in 2004, where I discovered permaculture by accident. I concluded rather quickly that permaculture was the one thing I was looking for since my childhood. I followed a PDC given by John Champagne at Panya, Thailand, July 2010, then a Teacher's training course in July 2012, also led by John Champagne, at Rak Tamachat, Thailand.

My partner and I live the permaculture way since, experimenting, practicing and designing for various people and organizations. We have been doing this in Laos and China until 2016.

We came back to France in mid-2016 to jump start the Base Camp project and settled in the Pyrenees, next to the Spanish border.
