Simple dreams...

My dream of traveling around the world solo has been accomplished. I am now embarking for another dream of mine, more like a lifestyle, about living my life simply in a country I love, doing something I love because what we love inspire us and make us better.

I saw the world at my pace, without anyone influence... It was a great adventure and I've seen things I never saw before, never imagine, didn't know existed, I've learned what I couldn't have anywhere else... I met amazing people who became a part of me, like family. and will carry them in my heart forever...
At the end of my trip, I looked inside me and listen to what my heart was calling... and one of the call was to go back to my islands and a name came often, Raiatea..... I called for it, saw myself there, surrounded by nature. Back in Moorea in december, looking around me, what my people were doing to our precious land and nature, I felt the urge to change. But I learned that the change had to come from me, and I had to do what I believe was the best. "Be the change" if you want the world to change.... "Practice what you preach and believe in". Organic farming was constantly in my mind...

Here I am now, in Raiatea, working on an organic farming project, living a simple life in the middle of a beautiful nature... Au bout du monde as some people call Fetuna... Thanks to my universe force and to my friend Andy who give me the opportunity and the chance to be here...

It is amazing, I'm learning everyday from my surrounding, nature is so giving when you "listen" to her. She teaches me to live in symbiosis with her, she cares about me and I care about her... An old friend of mine told me once, "care for the land and it will take care of you"... everything becomes natural... I have vegetables growing slowly. I would like to minimize my shopping/spending to the bare minimum. I will make a list of what I'm using/buying and what I live with and you could give me advice on natural product to replace what I have.

Right now I'm trying to extract (cold pressed) coconut oil to have cooking oil, which will be more healthy and free. I will tell you more about this later when I succeed.

At the Fetuna farm, we are looking to be self sustainable & organic. Installing solar power is our next big project. We would like to use bio oil in the future to run our engines and collect water from the land and rain.

It is an amazing adventure and it can only stand as an example for a better future for our beautiful paradisiac islands, as non-organic mass production farming has no good ends, we know it.

Who ever wants to be part of the adventure and spend some time volunteering in our beautiful paradise is welcome...

"Be the change"... May this world be better... with Love
