Hola amigos!!!


Has been a long time since my last email. I'm realy sorry about that, but I don't have internet access at home and our day-by-day is very busy.

Lot's things have happend during last 2 months in New Caledonia:

- OUR HOUSE -
After leaving the 'auberge caledonien' we moved to a sweet studio on a top of a hill, with views over the city center and the lagoon. We rent this studio to a family that is living in the first floor and they keeps this studio for their family that comes to visit them during holidays. As it was empty, we could rent it last 2 months. Great views, close to the forest, calm, cheap. A very good deal! The only problem was that we needed a car to get there. So we bought one :)

- OUR CAR -
We bought Ford KA, 1.4l, at a reasonable price.

- JOBS -
Camille was working almost from the first day.
I've got a job in the administration, after 6weeks waiting for all the procedures to be done. Finally I couldn't work with them with a one year contract as it was previewed. I created my own enterprise (called "white roman") and the administration chose my company to develope one of their projects during 1month. The idea was to start working with them in this way until I got a working visa to get the one year contract.

- THE CRITIC MOMENT -
In the end of June, we had already booked our tickets to come back to spain for the weeding of our dear friend Miguel Valdes. And the question was... what we should do?? we go to spain and come back to new caledonia...very expensive; we stay here and we abort the trip to spain... no way... so.... we had to take a desicion. And we took it! (after 1 weeks throwing dishes over our heads between Camille and me)

- THE LIGHT -
Along your life you find people that changes your mind and gives you ideas to start new projects. One night, after the participation of Camille in Noumea´s Threeatlhon, we met a woman that has been traveling along south america last year.
As this trip to "Las Americas" has been in my mind for a long time, we decided that we could realize it.

- THE DESICION -
We took the desicion to come back to europe. And here we are, in Tarragona, my hometown, looking for a job.

- COMING BACK TRIP -
We modified our tickets to do some scales during our trip back: 2 days in Singapur, 10 days in Bali, 3 days in London and finaly 10 days in Andaluzia (the south of Spain) for the weeding of our friend and to visit Granada and Cordoba.

So... our friends, we are back!
We hope to post some photos soon.
Plenty of kisses to everybody and we wish to see you soon!

Camille & Jordi.
