Here we are. Back in our country, France. It is fine to want to flee to discover new horizons, or criticize, we are still pleased to find her. It feels like either.
After more than two months of wandering, we can realize how lucky we have to have a home, a house, the family that loves us and we love also, which is can count more than anything.
This is another benefit of traveling to step back from his own life going to a very fast and does not expect us.

And so it quiet?
Some might ask: what is a trip like this can make?
Well a lot of things, some of which we realize on the spot, others a little later after reflection, and still others who will not come out of our unconscious. As
could tell me an old man traveling in a hostel in New York, the trip is University life. It may be the key to puzzles that we are intrinsic. We can generally take a step back from our little daily routine. Thus we have the opportunity to understand behaviors, situations, systems, to appreciate new things, or even some we did not like before, multiply the feelings of being much more independent, to find motivation ... The list is long, so of course I leave to those who have experienced the continuing care of quietly.
Another completely legitimate question: while the U.S., the yankees?!
Yes yes I get there. From a general point of view I must say that I will keep excellent memories of this trip. On all points of view. In the U.S. you will really see it all! I would say is the country of diversity, too much of the madness. We went in deserts out of sight but also in New York for example is a world reference in terms of modernity. We saw big huge, tattooed completely, drug addicts 24/24, rich rich, the poor very poor, gay, of all nationalities, religions, crazy, Hollywood stars, the arch ecologists. We saw huge pickup, taxis in New York all hybrid electric buses, old trucks incredibly polluting.
I think the U.S. is capable of the worst as the best. But I also feel there will be no moderation. I mean, you blame them they are fat, they provide ways Colossal about it and it's not long finished. You tell them they pollute, they will replace all taxis in a huge city by other hybrids at the leading edge of technology. These are illustrations of "too much" that I felt. A big
BRIEF encourage you all to go for periods shorter or longer elsewhere.
