I am completely reconsidering my faith in the contemporary Homo sapiens!! I just don’t stop seeing very friendly messages of what should be the typical and common kidnesss expressed by our peers, the consideration of the other. That’s really unbelievable in our society where, unless you are in your neighborhood and know everybody, people oftenContinue reading “It was not an exception!”

We are Spartans
We, as a family, have been Spartans, maybe we’ll be again soon. I am talking about these races that crazy people do to have fun, this military-like workout that we do in times of peace. Just crazy. This all begun, if I remember correctly, because we wanted to motivate ourselves as a family, and justContinue reading “We are Spartans”
Little discoveries
It has been exactly 3 months that I moved to Maine. Three months only since I entered in the US to live there. In fact, I didn’t expect to be particularly surprised about the way people live here: I grew up in an island with lots of similarities to Mount Desert Island, I was exposedContinue reading “Little discoveries”
Pour le plaisir des yeux *
It was snowing last night! I woke up before the sun rose – arrrg the sun is coming up later and later!- and slowly it became so white and bright everywhere! Then I realized that I needed to post some old pictures that I had in file before the real winter comes …. And nowContinue reading “Pour le plaisir des yeux *”
Winter symptoms
I am sick. That’s quite usual to pass some illnesses in a winter. Great! 😦 I am discovering the winter again! So, yes, it begun with sore throat. At this point I thought I was mirroring my daughter’s state who was actually sick last week in Singapore and that I caught the surrounding virus thatContinue reading “Winter symptoms”
About human brain evolution
I’ve attended the Society for Neuroscience (SfN) local Chapter conference in Waterville last week. It was a very small symposium of about 70 persons, where the researchers based in the local surrounding universities and Colleges working in Neurosciences shared their new projects. Since it doesn’t touch a large community, the meeting is generally attended byContinue reading “About human brain evolution”
Menu de la semaine*
It is time to make some food for the week. Since I try to make it with what the season is bringing there is not much choices. I made some groceries yesterday, and this morning, between a bit of cleaning, laundry and the daily workout (that includes the 32 burpees!!), I put the local MaineContinue reading “Menu de la semaine*”
Nobody is perfect
Few days ago I watched the documentary “Stink” on Netflix. It is an american documentary from Jon J. Whelan (2015) that explores the chemical industry for clothes, parfumes, household products and other cosmetics. Interesting! Interesting because he explains why there are toxins and carcinogens hidden in the products, legally. Interesting because it says exactly whatContinue reading “Nobody is perfect”
Feeling good
Most of the time I really think we are “just” human being, taking ourselves for the best creature on Earth and forgetting that we should live together. But sometimes I recover faith…. Few days ago I came across a post on the local Facebook community (do not think I am an addicted to Facebook, IContinue reading “Feeling good”
