Jumping in Mauritius... again !

Flic en Flac, Mauritius


That's one of the few perks of the job, getting to go work in Mauritius once in a while. The weeks is usually pretty packed with little or no time for anything besides meetings and work.

But the weekend......

This picture was taken from the Hilton Resort & Spa beach in Flic en Flac. A truly little piece of heaven :)

Jumping in Saint Malo

Saint-Malo, France


After, Le Mont Saint Michel, time for sunny* Saint-Malo ! Charming medieval coastal city where your addiction for crepes (pancakes) and cider can be fulfilled beyond your craziest dreams.

A weekend in Brittany without any rain ? You can't be serious. Actually, on the last day, the rain caught us up just in the middle of a run to catch the last train from Saint Malo to Rennes.

A huge thanks to the SNCF staff onboard the train that delayed departure to allow us to get in (and kuddos to the passengers of the coach applauding once we were on board with our sorry faces, exhausted and wet like if we had jumped into a swimming pool !)

Jumping in le Mont Saint Michel

Pontorson, France


A small escape from Paris and we end up in Brittany to visit the Presqu'île (= "almost-Island") du Mont Saint Michel.


Inside Mont Saint Michel Monastery, Fred's initiated a new jumping style: the praying jump ! Good job :-)

Jumping in Belém

Lisbon, Portugal


Jumping in Belèm (Lisbon's neighborhood). Belèm is mostly famous for it's Pastéis de Belém (local version of the Pastéis de Nata), some delicious egg-based tarts.

Jumping in Sintra's Palace

Sintra, Portugal


Sintra is a little village outside Lisbon, facing the Atlantic, and now part of UNESCO World Heritage. At the top of the hill, lies the Pena National Palace. This 19th century palace, offering outstanding views of the surroundings, is what could be a palace out from a Disney movie with many colors, towers and mix between different styles across centuries (from middle age castles, to renaissance palaces and Moorish architecture).

Jumping in Lisboa

Lisboa, Portugal


Portugal had been missing on my list for way too long. Hence I was very much looking forward to spending 4 days in Lisbon. And it was truly wonderful!

Lisbon is a gorgeous city. It spreads on 7 hills and overlooks the Tage River and the Atlantic. The weather was just perfect, so was the food and the general relaxed-mood. And, what's more, we realized that we arrived just for the Festas de Lisboa, also know as the weekend-long sardin BBQ party.

Team Jumping in Frankfurt

Frankfurt am Main, Germany


This year again the had the incredible opportunity to have all people from my team spread over Europe to gather for a few days in a Training Event. Around 80 people from 15 different countries come to Frankfurt and I couldn't miss the chance to make some of them to jump while we were visiting the city after a long day of training and presentations.

Is this becoming a tradition ? Family jumping for Easter

Limans, France


This year again, Easter long weekend was the perfect occasion for a family gathering in southern France. A tough weekend indeed, spending most of the time eating and enjoying the great weather of Provence !

After all that food eating contest, a little jump was more than necessary :-)

Jumping in sunny Piran

Piran, Slovenia


After the Alp Mountains, the sunny sides of the Adriactic !

Slovenia has a really little front to the sea. It is squeezed in between Italy and Croatia coasts. Piran reminded me of the little village of my own Côte d'Azur in southern France. The people around seem to be fluent in both Slovenian and Italian, much more than in the rest of the country.

Trying new Jumping styles in Bled

Bled, Slovenia


I really did have to think a while before deciding to post this picture. I didn't intend to look so Kawai / Kikoolol / Kute / [insert other girly adjectives starting with K here>...

But what the heck, surroundings, new Spring season and sunny weather might have gotten into my mood and ended up with this pose :-)

I tried to recover some charisma with another jump...

... but failed again.
