Hyperactif, sympathique et spontané, ce jeune étudiant basque, fraîchement diplômé dans l'agroalimentaire, aime profiter de la vie. Volontiers fêtard, Sébastien est également un sportif aguerri. Homme de challenge, il ne craint pas la pression.
==Koh-Lanta==
Sébastien was selected by Christophe Pendon to be a part of the Lankawaï tribe. The Lankawaï tribe got off to a poor start, losing the first three challenges. Before the second Reward Challenge, both tribes had to select a female and a male of their opposition to be banished until further notice. Thanks to this twist, the Lankawaï tribe lost Manon Allender and Sébastien for the time being, leaving them with seven active members. On Exile Island, the four banished contestants endured stricter conditions for the remainder of the cycle and, to make matters worse, Manon and Jessica Potel were stung by wasps upon arrival. Near the end of the cycle, the banished contestants received a message instructing them to prepare for a "fateful" challenge, which prompted them to fear that it would be an elimination challenge. At the beginning of the third cycle, Manon and Sébastien competed against Cédric Giosserand-Lucas and Jessica in said challenge. To their relief, no one was eliminated from this challenge as they had feared. However, Manon and Sébastien won this challenge and became captains of the new Tinggi and Lankawaï tribes, respectively, in consequence. At the end of the selection process, the new Lankawaï tribe consisted of five original Lankawaï tribe members and four original Tinggi tribe members. In spite of the new group dynamics, the Lankawaï tribe became more united very quickly. Having made it to the merge, the second Lankawaï tribe members wanted to pagong the second Tinggi tribe members. However, they faced a problem concerning the merged tribe's first Tribal Council. Since Corinne Bargoin Samuelian would be exempt from attending due to being at the infirmary and since Charlaine Cuny would already have a black vote cast against her, there would be a tied vote should the second Tinggi tribe members vote against Charlaine. To circumvent this, Cédric Giosserand-Lucas convinced Jeff Santiago that Charlaine had a Hidden Immunity Necklace and that they should vote out Sébastien instead. Though the other second Tinggi tribe members questioned Cédric's sincerity, they followed Jeff in voting against Sébastien at Tribal Council. Meanwhile, the second Lankawaï tribe members blindsided Jeff, who then angrily realized that he had been conned all along by Cédric. The next cycle, Corinne was permanently evacuated and eliminated from the game due to an infection on her foot, so Jeff returned to the game in her place, allowing for the second Tinggi tribe members to turn the tables on the second Lankawaï tribe members and eliminate three of them over the next two cycles. At the Final Eight, Marc Rambaud, who realized he was next in the second Tinggi tribe members' firing line, successfully convinced Chantal Ménard and Bruno Peisey to flip over to his side based on the three of them doing most of the work around camp. This trio, along with Sébastien, blindsided Jeff at Tribal Council. This new alliance of four controlled the votes over the next couple of cycles, but at the Final Five, outsider Mélissa Bastin won the last individual Immunity Challenge. Forced to eliminate one of their own, Chantal and Bruno targeted Sébastien while Sébastien joined forces with Mélissa to target Chantal, leaving Marc as the swing vote. Sébastien tried to argue to Marc that he had had his back for much longer than Chantal and Bruno did, but Marc pointed out that Chantal and Bruno saved him at a critical point in his game and that they work much harder around camp than Sébastien does. With Marc not changing his mind about how he'd vote, Sébastien was voted out right before the finale.
