Michael Coulanjon
Born on June 12, 1981 in Nevers, a happy childhood, Michaël Coulanjon spent a school life without problems in Vitrolles, in the Bouches-du-Rhône, until obtaining his baccalaureate in mechanical engineering technology sciences, with a microtechnology option. Very quickly, he decided to work for the petrochemical industry and a more or less happy period of ten years in different companies followed. In 2010, he was diagnosed with schizophrenia and stopped all activity. He wrote Voyage d'un schizophrène: En passant par Le Caire... In 2013, the vagaries of life made him meet an extraordinary woman; of course, he fell in love with her from the first hour... He then felt he had a poet's heart and wrote a series of poems dedicated to a Muse.

Testimony. After writing Journey of a Schizophrenic: Passing through Cairo... , Michaël, a paranoid affective schizophrenic with tendencies towards mystical delusions, continues his initiatory and spiritual journey. It is in the heart of Provence that he will take his first steps as a Christian, following in the footsteps of Mary Magdalene, Jesus' favorite disciple. His journey is disrupted by several crises that he describes to us with meticulous precision.
His story covers the period from April 2012 to June 2017.
Meetings… Trips…
