London, Tokyo, New York, Brussels and Nice, all of his trips have forged his strong character. His job as a Pastry Chef helped him showing his sensitivity through his delicious desserts.

What is your definition of Luxury ?

What you can't find anywhere else in the world. I'm really aware and pay close attention to the services and, I love discretion, confidentiality. To me, Luxury is, for example, the Royal Palm on Mauritius Island, Casadelmar Hotel in Corsica and, Plaza Athénée in Paris. My Luxury is also to be able to spend time with my family and bring them in these places I love.

Do you still practice a lot of sports ?

Each year, I'm challenging myself with sports events. I already run Paris marathon, climbed Mont Blanc and participated at VIP Roland Garros tournament. Preparation is intense and I'm exhausted at the end.
