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!”

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*”
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”
Running in the snow
It’s been 3 days that I sleep quite badly. The guys plowing the area are coming with their big truck at 3 AM to remove the snow and put salt in front of the door so that we are not slipping when we come out in the morning. That’s pretty annoying because I cannot goContinue reading “Running in the snow”
Minimalism
I love the idea. To rely on only few things, not be disturbed by too much stuffs around you, be able to live with the very strict minimum. It makes life easier for sure! Not to mention avoiding buying, wasting, belonging to this one-time-use society. However, I am sure I can’t live in an emptyContinue reading “Minimalism”
