Description

[English Below]
La lutte contre le changement climatique est au cœur de mon travail actuel. J'aime beaucoup vulgariser mes connaissances en biologie pour un public plus large. Mais surtout, j'aimerais échanger davantage avec les acteurs engagés concrètement dans la lutte contre le changement climatique via des projets de rénovation, permaculture et d'entretien d'équipement low tech. Pendant le mois de décembre, je serai bénévole dans un atelier de mécanique moto (Atelier du Roule Toujours, 94700 Maisons-Alfort), ce qui sera très formateur pour tout type de "bricolage". J'aimerais profiter de ce temps pour voyager au départ de Paris vers le sud de l'Europe à vélo, pour espérer profiter d'un climat plus favorable et rencontrer de nouveaux paysages et de nouvelles cultures. Je me déplace depuis toujours à vélo. C'est pour moi un mode de transport simple, efficace, qui me donne la liberté et l'occasion de voyager à mon rythme.
J’adore l'aventure et le sport. Depuis 15 ans, je passe mes étés à la Pointe du Raz (Bretagne, Finistère) pour surfer et faire de la voile légère. J'aime la vie en communauté et l'esprit d'équipe que j'expérimente aujourd'hui surtout à travers la pratique du rugby en compétition, où je sais être dévoué pour mon équipe. Je suis très motivé pour apporter mon aide et contribuer du mieux que je peux. J'ai du temps à disposition pour acquérir l'expérience nécessaire et devenir utile.

The fight against climate change is at the heart of my current work. I enjoy sharing my knowledge in biology with a wider audience. But most importantly, I would like to engage more with individuals actively involved in the fight against climate change through renovation projects, permaculture, and low-tech equipment maintenance. During the month of December, I will be volunteering in a motorcycle mechanics workshop (Atelier du Roule Toujours, 94700 Maisons-Alfort), which will be very instructive for various DIY projects.
I would like to make the most of this time to travel from Paris to the south of Europe by bicycle, in the hope of enjoying a more favorable climate and encountering new landscapes and cultures. I have always used a bicycle for transportation. For me, it is a simple and efficient mode of transport that provides me with freedom and the opportunity to travel at my own pace. I have the time available to gain the necessary experience and become useful.
I love adventure and sports. For the past 15 years, I have spent my summers at Pointe du Raz (Brittany, Finistère) for surfing and sailing. I appreciate the sense of community and teamwork that I currently experience, especially through competitive rugby, where I am dedicated for my team. I am highly motivated to offer my assistance and contribute to the best of my ability.

I am used to DIY of all kinds in the garden and indoors. I have been building my parents' house in Brittany for 4 years now. I also have a strong interest in automotive mechanics and I will spend at least a month in a motorcycle garage in December 2023. On an academic level, I am currently completing my doctorate in plant biology, so I also have a solid foundation of knowledge in the sciences and informatics
