In the eyes of some, Octavien Courdent is seen as a traveler who is passionate about helping the world around him. Born in France, he spent his childhood in English-speaking countries and a year in a British boarding school in Nigeria, where he has gained a very good command of multiple languages. He is also involved in civic life, being part of two Nigerian associations, "Life" and "Khan Foundation," which help with the education of children in difficulty (by building schools or investing in school materials). Passionate about human exchange, he joined the CA'store association at Kedge and was promoted to the manager of the "web department." This position made him independent and allowed him to acquire skills in web development. Since February 2022, he has joined Kozminski University in Warsaw, Poland on a university exchange while continuing his course in International Business. In addition to his University work, he has also interned with brands such as Garnier-Thiebaut USA and Viral Luxe.
During this episode, you will hear Octavien talk about:
How his life changed when he was given his first pair of glasses when he was 10 years old
Why he can’t afford to lose or break his glasses, or what he learned from going into the ocean with his on
The greatest thing he has seen when he improved his vision
The similarities between his glasses and a pair from another historical figure who recently had a Netflix show
