CFIC (Carrefour des fournisseurs de l'industrie cosmétique) will be held in Orléans on December 3 and 4, 2024. On this occasion, Rémi Camus, French adventurer and explorer, will be on hand to chat with participants.
Rémi Camus is a French adventurer and explorer born on July 17, 1985, from Bourges, in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. A former maître d'hôtel, he decided to embark on an adventure after reading Jamel Balhi's book about his crossing of the Americas on a run, entitled "Au cœur des Amériques".
Inspired by this reading, Rémi decided to change his life and become an adventurer. In 2011, Rémi Camus took on his first major challenge, running across Australia, covering some 5,400 kilometers in 100 days. During this expedition, he discovered the scarcity of water in the country's arid regions, reinforcing his commitment to water access issues.
Between 2013 and 2014, he hydrospeeded down the Mekong, covering 4400 kilometers from Tibet to Vietnam. The aim of this expedition was to raise awareness of the issues surrounding access to drinking water and to observe the different environmental conditions along the river. In 2018, he undertakes a swimming tour of France, a project that enables him to raise public awareness of environmental issues and the importance of preserving water resources. In 2023, he will carry out a sporting, educational and scientific expedition in collaboration with Grenoble University Hospital and the Wessling laboratory. This crossing from Calvi to Monaco once again illustrates his commitment to extreme challenges and environmental awareness, as well as his involvement in scientific research.
Rémi Camus continues to inspire through his adventures and commitment to global causes, sharing his experiences and knowledge of survival and the environment through various educational and awareness-raising projects...
"L'océan boit la tasse!" is the talk he'll be giving at CFIC on Wednesday December 4 at 10:45 am.
