Typical teenager of my generation (in France), I fell for Luc Besson’s movie The Big Blue. For the longest time, I resisted to the phenomenon until a friend dragged me to watch it at Le Grand Rex on a cold Sunday. While I had not been impressed with…
While many were playing with fireworks in their funny costumes to celebrate Halloween last night, I was having a delicious 3-course chocolate dessert dinner at a friend’s chocolaterie. After three years in business, she is gearing up in a rather inspiring way, now training her staff…
Marketers are investing more and more into social media, and so are companies. Good for them, I am sure it makes sense in their budget. So much that the not-so-honest ones get the best of lambda-consumers with multiple scams. Maybe it is related: paper flyers used to…
We are not quite done, and the day-long meetings are swallowing the bit of energy I had rebuilt over the weekend. So I am digging, hard, and anxiously taking notes to be sure I will remember why we ended up taking this perspective rather than…

It happens when I move: I am packing, conscientiously and religiously, what I have accumulated since my last move. I have organised the boxes so the movers just have to pick them up, and it is easy, especially when I know where I am going,…
Two years… It has been two years one of my clients has been “working” on a project, and it is still not resolved. Two years to choose a “simple” shirt as part of the company uniform (and identity). Here I come, and the expectations are…
