Gauloises... Mon amour

As apparently the cigarette is about to be banished in a country where everyone is supposed to smoke (I am obviously taking about France), I have to write a little note about it, as I have to confess, even if I am considered as an “occasional” smoker,...

Holy Cow

For the real animal-lover I am, travelling across a country with a religion based on animals is a blessing and really gives you other prospectives about life without reading any self-help-book-bullshit. It might also explain why India is h eaven for veggies....

Point Break

There are things like this... I just cannot get. I have celebrated about a week ago the fact that I have been living in London for 3 years and there are still an incredible number of things going on here that I cannot explain ... Why there are two taps...

The man of my life... (I found him, yes it's true!)

Fashion victim

Don’t worry, I’m not going to go on about the quality of the press in the UK as I’m aware I’d sound like a broken record. But I have to admit that every now and again, I really miss reading about French politics, even those issues which I wouldn’t really...

Sun of Sicily

The advantage of travelling in a place such as Sicily, is that linguitically speaking (not sure about this word, but anyway), the word Sicily is an alliteration by itself. And as everyone know that the limits of the alliteration are basically where the...

Forever young

Sing-a-long-song

Sorry all... It is not necessarily really nice to hear, but last week while I was in France, a question which comes up fairly often from the froggies came once again...: "how come Brits can listen to songs with such shallow lyrics?". As you all know......

The whole point of that weblog was indeed the neologism... As you probably noticed, I did not made up new words in my last posts... I deeply apologise for this and here you go, I will repair this big mistake... Because indeed, even if in English you can...

Shallowly racist

Don't worry, I am not gonna blame the Brits once again. It would be too easy... And at the end of the day, I have to admit, I love them... Well not all of them, let be honest... I just would like to pay tribute to this fantastically international sickness...

Ghost Train

If there are a few things I would have to admit, Brits are really good at, I would say beer, crisps (especially the packaging) and saying they are sorry (I find it sort of annoyingly sweet). - I could obviously make it longer but it would be boring afterall....
