Timeless Bubbles

It's been two months that I prepared my evil plans, everyone in Montreal is aware of my departure and the many surprises that I prepared. In France, only my brother, my sister, my father and PA are aware of my return.
With the support of PA, I arrive at the restaurant in which he made a rendez-vous to Claire, my very good friend, and I see with the server if the plan is ready. He also joins the game and gives me a table upstairs. The pressure increases, I have twenty minutes before Claire's arrival ..
I hear the waiter talking to her and bring her to the stairs. Last step, she puts her feet on the ground and stops moving .. Her eyes are wide open, she is shocked, a '' Nanou? '' timidly comes out of her mouth and then she comes up to me as if she had seen a ghost. She is chocked it's obvious, I had called her two days ago from Montreal, and now I'm here.
This is a stronge emotional situation, I let a few tears at the same time and I take her in my arms showing her that I am really there, I am here for her.
We spend a wonderful evening full of complicity of childhood friends. A few glasses of wine, a delicious meal and some secrets .. The evening will remain etched in my memory.

 

During breakfast, we plan my arrival at the weekend in Noirmoutier and Claire takes me to my childhood house.
Once there, I pass the front door, no one in the kitchen .. I head to the living room, my gut tells me that I might surprise my little mother in pyjamas .. I was right! I pass the door of the bathroom and surprised by the presence of someone she turns washcloth in hand and burst into tears when she sees me. The emotion is too strong, I fell into tears my turn and just hug my dear little mother with her birthday bouquet in hand.
We spend a quiet day at home, and a great evening with the family at the St Felix restaurant on the banks of the Erdre river.
The next morning, first surprise that doesn't work out, I rang the doorbell of my friends, but nobody answers .. I finally go towards Noirmoutier to join the group of high school friends.
Once there, Marine jumps at me suddenly very surprised too, and here I am in front of her daughter born in January, a new stage of her life ... becoming a mother ..
The weekend is going very well, between attempt beach games, molkü, volleyball, barbecue, talks, dances, etc ..
I leave this little cocoon in which I was treated like a princess and I went back home.
Evening with the family, I want to tell my friend Aurélie my return and I learn from her that she is also leaving for a trip around the world! Great !!

I'm back on the plane and now I'm off to new adventures. In some parts this will be a culture shock, it is not the West, Europe and habits that I can find in Italy or even in Turkey, no now I go to Asia. And I will start by discovering Japan, wow !!
During those endless hours of flight, you have the time to think and a thought that has often came up to my mind is' but what am I doing here ?? '' why am I going there, why I would not be better to settle somewhere and work instead of spending my money and having that constant stress about none left.
And then my mother's words come back to me, it takes some courage '' morally and physically '' to go alone like that.
Basically what this trip will bring me except ruin me at first will be incredible. I know that the first three months were really full of great adventures, encounters, so my curiosity pushed me to go farther.
What can I learn well there? On new people, new cultures, also on myself because in a sense I try to discover myself. This travel provides a way to put my being and my soul in a trip, travelling to places full of spirituality and who knows how to connect to things that opened my eyes ..
