Who’s hungry?
Last week-end I saw one of the guys living in the house I live in harvesting wasp nests located in the house. If you have never been to Reunion Island you don’t know that people actually eat wasps’ larvae here. The guy had a very long stick with a smoking piece of cloth at the end. The wasp don’t like the smoke, once they are gone it is easy to get the nest.

The day before yesterday I stumble on this as I got home.
Looks nice doesn’t it? I had no idea lizard liked bear with tequila in it. As soon as I saw them I went to get my camera to take a few pictures. I had left the bottle outside after emptying it so 3 lizards decided to move in. I expected them to scramble as soon as I came close to the bottle but they were completely out of it.

Each time I get somewhere, going for groceries is the first thing I do once I am settled.
When I just get somewhere and go grocery shopping, I almost always buy the same things. For breakfast, I will get some milk, some chocolate to mix with the milk, some biscuits, some Weetabix, some Rice Crispies and some Cranberry juice. For meals, I will get some Farfalle from Barilla, some smoked salmonIam Nowherehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12004446904339611286noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1139398374769161371.post-66607008961273669972012-12-05T17:00:00.000+01:002012-12-05T19:49:04.735+01:00My Sound Of The Day

I probably have written this already: « le Cirque de Mafate » is really amazing, it is always a pleasure to go back there.
Great viewpoint to start the hike.
Here there is you, your hiking buddies and maybe a few cows.
I love the “beard” of the tamarind trees, they give a weird mood to the forest.

And here I thought my problems were over.
This morning I went to the post office to get the debit card my wife sent via express mail. After my workday I went to the ATM closest to my place to get some cash, I would finally be able to pay my rent. I inserted the card, typed the pin code and selected 400€; the machine started working and then displayed that I could only withdraw 200€.

When you think it is over think again.
I went back to one of the banks where I could use my American Express card in the ATM. As I still couldn’t get some money from the ATM, I went in the bank hoping I would be able to get some money from the cashier. Hell no! The woman in front of me couldn’t care less about my problem and she sure wouldn’t get out of her way to help me.

Sometimes it is just better to stay in bed.
Thursday was the big day, I had setup a nice week-end in Mauritius Island to go scuba diving. My suitcase was full with what I needed for 4 days of diving, reading on the beach and sleeping. The taxi dropped me at the airport, I gave my passport at the check in counter, the agent looked at it and told me that he couldn’t check me in because my Iam Nowherehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12004446904339611286noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1139398374769161371.post-35250086433848912962012-10-31T17:00:00.000+01:002012-11-01T09:18:12.316+01:00My Sound Of The Day

Today is a sad day, I lost my first tooth as an adult.
Today the dentist extracted one of my wisdom tooth.
I am seated in the dentist chair head backward. He just stuck a needle in various areas of my gum and I gradually am starting to lose some feeling in the mouth. He asks me to describe what I am feeling and when he is satisfied he starts working; he pushes, he pulls, he presses...

How about going back in time?
I went to Cilaos with some friends and we spent the night in “Ilet des Chicots”. To get there you have take a very winding road that will take you to Cilaos City (the road has 400 turns) then take a very narrow road. Between the winding and the area of the road where two cars can’t pass each other you have to park the best way you can in the few areas designed Iam Nowherehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12004446904339611286noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1139398374769161371.post-55059273804821715322012-10-03T17:00:00.000+02:002012-10-03T17:00:05.824+02:00My Sound Of The Day

I wrote this post a while ago but forgot to put it online.
What happens when culture takes over a city? You have to go to Nantes to find out.
Le Voyage a Nantes is a simple idea: how do you link all the cultural places in a culturally active city? The answer: organize a trip across the city. The organizers of the VAN decided to create a path to follow in Nantes.

I am abroad again and this means that this blog will come alive again.
I have been back on Reunion Island for almost 2 weeks now and I can say one thing for sure: it is cold here. Of course being cold is relative to each of us, the temperature can go up to a maximum of 25°C and gets as low as 10°C as soon as the sun sets.

I went on a drive to Clisson with my scooter.
The scooter is usually the best way for me to move around a little bit freely. It gives me the possibility to visit places located around Nantes. I followed the advice of one of my colleague and decided to go visit Clisson, the town like many in the area has a castle because it is located close to the old border between France and Brittany.
