Taiwan, 2005 (in French) |
| Some details about my short trip with Yukako to Taipei. |
|
Japan, 2001 (in French) |
| After getting a working-holiday visa, I went to Japan for one year. There, I've learned a few kanjis, visited several temples, seen beautiful places but the most important of all, I've met my family-in-law. I want to say several big thanks to Otto-san and Okaa-san for their hospitality. |
Guatemala, 2000 (in Spanish and French) |
| In order to improve my Spanish, I went to the old capital of this country, Antigua Guatemala, for one month. I was hosted by a very kind family. I spent most of my time studying Spanish but during weekends, I visited several places of interest.
I want to thank Suzanne Tardif that gave me several pictures. |
|
Mexico, 1999 (in French) |
| In company of three friends of mine, I went to explore this country and to apply my recent Spanish skills. We made a lot of kilometers in a very short period of time (16 days). We saw several beautiful archeological sites and have experienced all kinds of interesting events. |
|
Japan, 1998 (in French and English) |
| I was seduced by Egypt for its different culture. To experience another cultural shock, I went to Japan. Fortunately, I had learned some basic Japanese vocabulary before going there. This helped me a lot to make me understood by the Japanese people during this 3-weeks trip. I've made some interesting acquaintances there. It was a unforgettable trip. |
|
New-York, 1997 (in French and English) |
| Short weekend in the Big Apple in company of my good friends Jeff, Christian and Anne. We walked a lot though the crowded streets bordered by tall buildings. We ate some good food in good restaurants. We also did some shopping and we went out in an alternative club. |
|
California, 1997 (in French) |
| Looking for a job in Silicon Valley, I spent 2 months in Palo Alto. Even though my lack of experience and contacts prevented me to get an interesting job, I spent some good time there. The weather was always nice. I drove a lot. I also met Guillaume, his wife and their baby. At the end of the sojourn, my friends Francois paid me a visit. We also met Dany and his co-worker, Tran in San Francisco. |
|
Nevada, Arizona, California, 1996 (in French) |
| I wanted to see the Grand Canyon at least once in my life so I took a plane to go to the other side of the continent for 16 days. As I had rented a car, I improvised an itinerary that lead me to visit these 3 states. Freedom!!! :-) |
|
Egypt, Greece & Italy, 1995 (in French and English) |
| To celebrate my graduation, before entering the job market, I spent 2 months around the Mediterranean Sea in company of Sylvie. This was my first true travel experience. It was filled with diversity and adventures. |
|
Hull, Ottawa, 1992 (in French) |
| I spent some time visiting some friends doing their Sherbrooke University training term. |
