I live in Vannes, a town located in the French region of Brittany. I learned to row with the help of my cousin, who used to train every day. When I was ten, I used to see him practicing with the outrigger canoe and it piqued my interest. I asked him to teach me to row and this was the start of my interest in the sport. As for my favourite downwind route… I’m not sure I have an outright favourite. I’m quite versatile when it comes to training, be it starboard winds, port side, downwind, upwind, whatever it may be. 

My goal is to try to make podium position with every race. The Orofero is one of the standout races as far as I’m concerned.
