“I have always had a great thirst for learning. I was lucky enough to travel all over Europe, Asia and North America. I only know Africa from books, internet and friends from Sudan, Burkina Faso… ” Marin told us

“As a child, I made a very short visit to Morocco. All this cannot tell the infinite complexity of a continent that contains, for me, more cultures and extraordinary stories than anywhere else in the world. Simply, all humanity is born there.” 

“I’d first and foremost like to learn, like the student that I am and will always be, with great respect for the people who will know how to give me advice and guide me on this great journey.”

He holds a Master’s degree in Human and Social Sciences with a focus on the Middle East (Institut national des langues et civilisations orientales, Paris, 2019), a Master’s degree from the Institute of European Studies (University of Paris 8, 2018) and Bachelor of Musicology degree, Jazz option (University of Paris 8, 2017)

Actually he is President of the association “WATIZAT” which campaigns for access to information for immigrants  in France and is co-founder of the “Guide of Asylum seekers in Paris”. He has worked with the National Research Agency on this subject.
