Cool but short holidays

Hey folks, I’m back again! Actually I spent some days away last week, for some wonderful and sunny holidays.

I started by visiting my dear friend Maïwenn in Strasbourg. It’s good to see her, it’s been a long time (since Christmas) and I missed her a lot. She is renting a great apartment in Neudorf! We went to a nice restaurant, where fried camemberts and sauerkraut are legion, not to forget about the local beer. Delicious! Maï, congrats for the non-wedding. Think about Paris, you owe me a favour!

I took the advantage of being there to visit Dominique, son of one of my parents’ colleagues; I haven’t seen him for years and years. He showed me round the city all the afternoon: the tour was very pleasant, as he has all the historical (he is an historian PhD student) and city planning background needed. Strasbourg is really a lovely city, with its neat buildings, green parks, wide streets and its odd but splendid one-spire cathedral. I like the contrast between old buildings which have style, and modern elements like the futuristic streetcar or buildings of glass and shiny metal. However, the (extreme) right tendency in the area restrains my wish to live there.

He introduced me to his friends as his little cousin, and I was very touched. I didn’t expect that much from him. Now I see him differently and I promise myself to visit his sister and brothers (namely Rachèle, Michael and Paulo) real soon.

Then, I moved to Saarbrücken, Germany where I met Sophie and her friends. Again, it was a heartwarming stay. I haven’t seen Sophie since Christmas too, though we regularly exchanged messages all along the year. She has a nice apartment downtown, not far from the famous “Garage” night club we went to, with Adélaïde, Laurent and Carla (they’re damn cool!). We spent quite much time together, which was fine cause I really like her much. We also went for a walk in the forest on the banks of the Saar, at a place where the river almost makes a loop.

In short: great holidays, full of emotions.

And I also missed the famous BlogDay 2005 but, as I haven’t linked any website yet, I can’t make up for it this year, sorry Ozh :) Anyway ffs m8, thanks a lot for the advertising, I was very touched by your post. I never thought you paid attention to my uninteresting thoughts, that’s why this post is dedicated to you (you were expecting personal stuff, right?)
