South of France, Avignon
Nothing is better than a break far away from the daily life. This week-end, I joined my parents in the South and discovered Avignon. A lot of folkloric plays in the streets, icecream and restaurants under the sun, orange roads among red landscapes and lost stone villages in mountains… Look. Eat. Travel !

BOOKREVIEW: Toni (Morrison), what's going on ?
In France, a literature similar to traditionnal afro-american literature (Toni Morrison, Alice Walker, Alex Haley…etc) is not as strong as in U.S.A, I think. We have a lot of essays, of history books, but novels… Not so many. Somehow, I share this afro-american culture which screams the “black History” or “black culture”, because I […]
Moving on, strength of next days
Weird title, I think. But it seemed to me obvious that “strength” takes place in it. Nothing goes as we expect that it will be. Disappointment is something that I am familiar with, somehow, in love. Some of you appreciated my last article, and I don’t regret my words but since that, disappointment came upon […]
SPAIN – Barcelona : view from Montserrat
Flying away from France for a week in Barcelona. One of my best friend hosted me and showed the beauty of Catalogna, region of Barcelona. I learnt that discovering a place with an habitant is the best way to catch the soul of a place !
