Alexandre Bonnin

My name is Alexandre. I was born in Paris in 1989. I lived my first 5 years in the french capital. Then my parents moved to Toulouse. This is at that time that I got really interested by sport. I played tennis in a club. And with my family, we used to go skiing one week every year.
At the age of 10, I moved again to Caen. I decided to trade tennis with basketball. Indeed, I had enough of tennis because I wanted to play a collective game, in a team. I spent all my secondary and high school education in the city of William the Conqueror. Thus, I became also keen of History ; mostly the one dealing with the last century and the 2nd World War. I visited many times the Memorial of Peace in Caen. I can remember the excitement that surrounded the D-Day 60 years anniversary in June 2004.
Eventually, I decided after my baccalaureate to do my higher education (LEA and MINT) in Paris. This is the time when I discovered another hobby : traveling. Indeed, I enjoyed visiting many different countries (among them Canada, Morocco, Israel, Spain, Jordan). I also did a 6-months Erasmus in Leiden (Netherlands).
