Jean-Luc, 64

I am the oldest of seven children and I have worked all my life. I’ve devoted myself to many different pursuits; sailing, construction work, university studies, administration and recently, politics. Now I’m retired and have switched to another track in life. I live in the south of France and spend most of my time outdoors in the beautiful weather. I walk a lot in the forest and search for mushrooms that I can cook with. I really enjoy simple pleasures such as cooking or playing cards with my family and friends.

I have a very firm view concerning technology. I am fascinated by it and by development, but I also feel that technology should always serve humanity. We shouldn’t need to work according to technology’s terms, but technology should work on ours. I think that smartphones are the first telephones that take humans into account and Doro’s telephones are easy to use. When I do something on my phone, it feels natural for me. This phone is an extension of my arm.
