Back in the swing of things...!

Souper chez Maite et JulienHanoi is waking up after a long 5-day sleep when the whole town was shut down. We've enjoyed getting up late, visiting friends, having dinners and taking it easy. But already tomorrow it is back to work for me and back to school for Simon, whereas Rémi still gets one more week off. He'll stay at home with the housekeeper, and I'm sure that by the end of the week he'll be looking forward to school starting again. After the long break, the supermarket's shelves are now empty, no fresh milk available anywhere so it will take awhile for the wheels to get going again. But trafic is back on the streets and the intensity is returning to the megapole. At least it is still cool weather which I enjoy tremendously. So let the year of the dragon begin (or continue)!

For those of you who have wondered, Voir-le-monde stands for See-the-world which has been my moto for the past few years. So why would I have a web site title in French and content in English ? The title comes from the heart, and at first I had the intention of having a bilingual site. But the amount of time it takes to keep it up-to-date in one language doesn't allow me the time for translation.

The contents of this web site may appeal to anyone wishing to get a glimpse of the countries where I have traveled to through the photo albums and written stories. Some sections such as This Week are more personal accounts of my life abroad and are aimed at friends and family who wish to follow my experiences more closely.

I feel truly blessed to live a life that takes me around the world, discovering people and places that inevitably have a great impact on me. I only wish to share some of this with you...
