That’s it, it’s now official, Jayana will find the sea in a few weeks for new adventures! Our faithful mount, having found no new owners, could not resign himself to remain locked in Lake Champlain. The kids were eager for new adventures on the boat, but “not at the lake” did they bother to specify. […]

We would like to present you our most spectacular images taken in the first month we spent in Europe. We revisit our time in Leucate to prepare Jayana for her second year of voyage up to our stay in Cavalaire-sur-Mer, in the St-Tropez region. (sorry for the French version only)

After Manzanillo, we had booked a stay (the 3rd) in the vicinity of Turrialba. However, I convinced Sounda to cancel our last hotel to allow us to enjoy a few days in the Manzanillo area. We were looking for hotels and almost everything was sold out. We realized that it was Holy Week and a lot of people come […]

When this film’s production team landed on the Caribbean coast of Costa Rica, they hired dozens of people, including Manuel and some of his family members. Georges Brossard was technical advisor for the entomological side, including how the main actor would handle a butterfly net. Nevertheless, he had a lot of free time to venture in the […]

A few months ago, we have had the opportunity to meet Georges Brossard at his residence. The goal that we wanted to accomplish was to inspire Mael in his interest in entomology. However, our lifestyle has piqued Mr. Brossard’s interest and in one of our discussions, we mentioned that one of our next destinations would Manzanillo […]
