I participated in an "Ironman Creativity contest" in Taiwan twice (2007 & 2009) when I was in high school! It was a crazy adventure. I try to seize such unexpected opportunities, especially when it leads me abroad to discover new cultures and ways of life. That's how I went to New-Caledonia (where my mother was born), South Africa (to research concentration camps in 1900-02), Benin (for a humanitarian mission), Albania (in the mountains on horse back)... I also tend to get involved in many societies and projects, often organizing events (conferences, horse jumping contest, probono marathon, theater evening...).
