Antonin S

Joined Atlas Obscura in 2018

Serial traveler, dreamer, sailor and cook... I love unusual experience and I am always looking for abandoned place or new interesting things to do everywhere. I am lived in Berlin (Germany), Geneva (Switzerland) and now Lausanne (Switzerland) where I am studying for 3 years. I have been travelling a lot to Asia, Africa and North America and more recently to South America.
