Hugo Thelier will carry the Olympic Torch. Here’s his story:

Hugo's career has always been closely linked to the sea. From his beginnings in a sailing school to his time at the windsurfing hopefuls centre, he has gradually turned his career towards the nautical professions. He became a sailing instructor, then a trainer at the hopefuls centre and federal technical adviser to the Guadeloupe League, and has made it his mission to pass on his passion and raise awareness of the marine environment among Guadeloupeans. For the past decade, he has also devoted himself to traditional sailing, working to preserve and promote this heritage by getting novices of all ages into the sport.
