Jumping in Lorient celebrating New Year 2013!

1 January, 2013 from Lorient, France Leave a Comment

The past 2 years I had taken advantage of the Christmas and New Year break to go travel abroad and jumping in funny place like in the Sahara or above the Arctic Circle. But this year it was back to basics. Spending the New Year with many great friends in France.

This year’s destination was Lorient, in Brittany, where Géraldine had arrived a few months before and had a big apartment all by herself. I was more than thrilled when she suggested we could use her place for this year’s celebrations. If I look back, the best New Year’s were not the ones in fancy public places or fancy destinations abroad. Best New Year’s were at somebody’s home, with your best friends around where you spend the days cooking altogether, eating altogether, playing games altogether and celebrating altogether. You don’t need to go to a posh restaurant and eat fine food. You want to go buy your product yourself and spend the whole 31st of December peeling potatoes and trying not to burn your Gratin Dauphinois. That’s when you will have a really good time and great memories.

More to that, something really strange happened during those days. We were in Britany, and it didn’t rain ! (well, it didn’t rain the whole time would actually be more accurate).

So, we couldn’t resist to go on a stroll to the beach, between two potato peeling sessions, and jump !

That picture was taken on the 31st, on Saint Sylvester’s day, a very particular day for me 🙂 After the stroll, we went back home and got ready for the night under the theme : Hippy New Year ! That was… hum… fun 🙂

Jumping in Paris with Paulina

8 April, 2012 from Paris, France Leave a Comment

Paulina doesn’t come often to France as she lives in Mexico. So when she does, we need to play the perfect tourists and visit some of the highlights of Paris.

We started with Beaubourg, the Comtemporary Art Museum:

We then headed up to la place de l’Hôtel de Ville:

And, of course, finished under la Tour Eiffel:

September had be a month without any particular travel, except a few flash work-related expeditions to London, where I didn’t have the chance to jump.

 

But that’s no reason to stop practicing at home!

Jumping in Saint-Malo

19 June, 2011 from Saint-Malo, France 7 Comments

After, le Mont-Saint-Michel, time for sunny* Saint-Malo ! Charming medieval coastal city where your addiction for crepes (pancakes) and cider can be fulfilled beyond your craziest dreams.

* A weekend in Brittany without any rain ? You can’t be serious. Actually, on the last day, the rain caught us up just in the middle of a run to catch the last train from Saint Malo to Rennes.

A huge thanks to the SNCF staff onboard the train that delayed departure to allow us to get in (and kuddos to the passengers of the coach applauding once we were on board with our sorry faces, exhausted and wet like if we had jumped into a swimming pool !)

A small escape from Paris and we end up in Brittany to visit the Presqu’île (= “almost-Island”) of Le Mont-Saint-Michel.

Inside Mont Saint Michel Monastery, Fred’s initiated a new jumping style: the praying jump ! Good job 🙂
