Living in French Guiana and working at Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou

By Juan de Dalmau

Juan de Dalmau worked for the European Space Agency (ESA) that allowed him to work and thrive in Paris, Kourou, Strasbourg, Barcelona and Noordwijk.
He is thankful to the founders, the faculty and staff of International Space University (ISU), and to his sponsors ESA and the French Space Agency (CNES), for the life-changing experience of attending ISU's Space Studies Program in 1989. Those two and a half months in Strasbourg led to three years in the early 2000s, and to three more years more recently.
