Aujourd’hui, dans l’hémisphère nord c’est le jour le plus court de l’année. C’est l’hiver qui commence. Joyeux Yule.

It’s beginning to looks like Christmas! ✨🌲

Happy Thanksgiving to All my Friends who Celebrate. I am so thankful for my family and all the time we can have simply together.

Only in New York do we get to have a such a “melange de genres”! This week, I had the chance to attend to a celebration in honor of Diwali at the school I work, followed later by a fun and spooky trick or’ treat with my Birthday boy and then a wonderful Tibetan/Nepalese/Indian fusion dinner!
Only in New York! I love my International city. So thankful for it. Hope you had a great Halloween and Happy Diwali to All My Friends Who Celebrates! 👻🪔🎂

À Tous Mes Amis Francophones - j’ai besoin de votre aide!!!
Je commence une nouvelle aventure en tant qu’enseignante de français (langue étrangère) dans un collège privé à NYC (Middle School). Mes élèves ont donc entre 11 et 14/15 ans max..
Je voudrais enseigner la culture sous le scope de la francophonie - et je suis à la recherche ressources musicales et littéraires francophones - en pas seulement française… Je m’aperçois que je suis assez ignorante et aussi je ne veux pas tomber dans la caricature!! Help!!! ❤️😎

Shanah Tovah to All who Celebrates. May the New Year bring peace to All.

I came back on Sunday from my annual trip to my birth country, France. I started my new job right away on Monday. (More about this later—it's an incredible school.) As a tradition, for the first back-to-school all-staff gathering, which will happen today, we are asked to share a picture that represents a meaningful moment of our summer. I hadn’t yet added the picture to the shared folder, and I wasn’t sure what picture to share. Now, as I just came back on Sunday, I’m also still very jet-lagged, and I woke up at 4 a.m. this morning. I woke up knowing what picture I wanted to share: the "olivier" (olive tree) we planted for our father, with my sisters and my son, this summer. It’s only after I realized that today is August 21st, my dad’s birthday. As I started working at a Quaker school, I’m also learning to listen to and follow my inner voice more. Here, it wasn’t even a voice, as I didn’t do it consciously. I take it as a sign.
Je t’aime papa et je vous aime fort les « Bergeronnettes ».

Avis au Frenchies d’Astoria: J’ai déposé quelques livres en français pour enfants - pour les tout-petits jusqu’à 8-9 ans environ - au « Free Store » à Socrates Park.

OUI!!!!!! Un grand soulagement ce soir. La France n’est pas passée aux mains de l’extrême droite. 😌

Happy 4th of July to All our American Friends! ❤️🎊
