Floriane in India: December 2008
http://florianeinindia.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html
Friday, 19 December 2008. First steps in West Bengal. The quizz from the previous post is still going on! What I will remember from my first steps in West Bengal. The elegance of women dressed in glistening and colourful saris. When they sit in group, they are as beaming as a rainbow! Grazing livestock in recently harvested fields:. In Jogradihi, the last village we visited, there is no tube well for drinking water. So women go to fetch water at the nearby stream between 2 to 5 times a day. They ...D I w...

Floriane in India: Phool Vatti in India
http://florianeinindia.blogspot.com/2009/04/phool-vatti-in-india.html
Thursday, 16 April 2009. Phool Vatti in India. I am back from 10 days spent in the village of Basra, in Haryana, just 2 km from Rajasthan in Northwest India. Views of the fields and village. I had a fantastic time. I was staying in the house of the family of Pawan, who was our local contact and guide in the village - and sometimes interpreter when it was too difficult for Kaifi, my interpreter, to understand bagri (local dialect of Rajasthani). I learnt how to cook. Our favourite game. 1,2,3.run! I did t...

Floriane in India: Why my flat is (almost) perfect
http://florianeinindia.blogspot.com/2009/03/why-my-flat-is-almost-perfect.html
Wednesday, 11 March 2009. Why my flat is (almost) perfect. 1 It is beautiful. Yes. Come and see. 2 It is located in the heart of Hyderabad city centre – an unique opportunity to discover this fantastic city. Plus it is just next to the MMTS (local train like Paris RER) station. A great experience during peak time. 3 It is quiet – every day you can “do the fat morning” if you like (French expression to say you sleep till very late). Ok, I admit. There is one thing missing. The swimming pool of ICRISAT.

Wednesday, 20 January 2010. A new year in India. All my wishes of happiness for the new year! 2010 - another decade. I still remember this competition 25 years ago for which I made a drawing for a child magazine on how I was imagining 2000. It seemed so distant and so big for me!

Driving record with my motorbike. proof is here. Hello Floriane, ...

Find a very nice flat, perfectly located in the city centre;. Buy the motorbike of my dreams. and get my "learner's license"! How did it happen? This, I know! Because I got a magical card.

Some days, there is a merry ambiance at IWMI office. 5 It is close to multiple sm...
