I’m Thibaut. I’m an ordinary guy living an extraordinary adventure. I want to be an inspiration for all those who are persevering to achieve their greatest goals.

My story

As a boy, playing sports was my no. 1 priority, especially football. Supported by my family, I joined one of the best youth clubs. I was told back then that I didn’t have the talent to be a football player. But they saw a different role for me. And by working hard I would become excellent. They didn’t need to say more.

That’s where my journey began, and I’m staying dedicated to the pursuit of my goals. By daring to dream and by working hard to realise those dreams. I want to be an inspiration for all those who are persevering to achieve their greatest goals.

Being a professional, to me, means constantly bettering yourself and staying determined in the most detailed ways. You must listen to people who have achieved and therefore understand the dedication and sacrifice it takes to succeed. They can inspire you to be better and stronger. I respect people who work hard for their goals, and those who can recognise that tenacity in others.

I don’t hold back, but always keep track of reality. By being honest I can always face myself in the mirror and look others straight in the eye. You’ll get the real story from me, I always cut to the chase. That or nothing at all. No bullshit.
