Removal with AGS from Abuja to New Delhi.........

They packed to well and it took two days for them to finish all. Now, our things are on the way to another continent and hopefully we will see them again in India. But most of them will continue the journey to Kuala Lumpur as we will have a fully furnished apartment in New Delhi. You see there, inside the container ....it's Laurent. He like to organise his own things the where he always want to even it wasn't nessecery of him to do it and I guessed it was boring for him just to wacth them.Posted by Picasa

Le démenagement.....!!!

There were a lots of work to be done but actually it wasn't for us. We felt so bore when we had to wait all the day and just looked at the workers packing everything. Sometime I went to Ellen (our housekeeper) room's to sleep but I couldn't. Laurent went to the Embassy from time to time to have his coffee while his coffee machine was already inside one of the cartons. It wasn't too bad this time and I didn't feel so stress about it. Now the house is empty....and I feel strange to be at home. But that is life....the way of life that we have chosen before we came here. In another hand, we are happy to go.....to discover a new place on this planet.....to have some new experiences......and etc...!!

Big kisses from Abuja!!

Il y avait plein de choses à faire mais ce n'est pas nous qui étions au travail. C'était ennuyeux quand nous avons dû attendre et regarder comment ils ont emballé tous les choses pendant toute la journée. Des fois, je suis allée chez Ellen (notre femme de menage) pour dormir mais je n'arrivais pas. Laurent est allé de temps en temps au bureau pour prendre son café car la machine à café était déjà dans un des cartons. Ce n'était pas aussi mal et je n'ai pas senti le stress. Maintenant la maison est vide.....et cela me fait bizzarre d'être à la maison. Mais c'est la vie....c'est la façon de vivre que nous avons choisi avant de venir ici. D'autre part, nous sommes content de partir.....de decouvrir une nouvelle place sur cette planète.....d'avoir de nouvelles expériences....et etc....!!

Gros becs d'Abuja!!

Paris.....


So these are the pictures during our visit in Paris and actually we were there to visit Stephanie and Olivier. After Nigeria, it was nice to be in the city where we can find the finest cuisine in the world. We made a little visit too around Paris but the rest of the time, we spent in the restaurant......eating.....or shopping.... !!!!
Alors, voici les photos que nous avons pris pendant notre visite à Paris et actuellement nous étions là bas pour rendre visite à Stephanie et Olivier. Après le Nigeria, c'était sympa d'être dans une ville où nous pouvions trouver la meilleure cuisine du monde. Nous avons aussi fait une petite visite au tour de Paris et le reste du temps, nous sommes allé aux restaurants.....manger....shopping....etc...!!!!

Back to Abuja!!!

Actually we are happy to be back home after 2 weeks on the road between Lausanne-Paris-Tinizong-Lausanne. But tonight we will fly back to Switzerland for the family matter and this time just for a week. We haven't seen anyone yet since we are back here accept for Lukman. Last night we had a dinner with Lukman at our place and finished at 1.00a.m. We had a nice time together and had a lots of things to say like everytime. Between the farewell parties and moving out from this place, there is so many things to do and I am started to be tired of it. But that's the way is it and I guessed I have nothing to complain about.

Big kiss from Abuja....

Honnêtement, nous sommes vraiment content d'être de nouveau à la maison après 2 semaines en vadrouille entre Lausanne-Paris-Tinizong-Lausanne. Mais ce soir, nous prenons à nouveau l'avion pour la Suisse pour une affaire de famille et pour cette fois seulement une semaine. Nous n'avons pas vu nos amis depuis que nous sommes rentrés sauf Lukman. Hier soir, nous avons soupé ensemble à la maison et avons terminé à 1h00 du matin. Cela c'est bien passé et nous avons eu plein de choses à raconter comme toujours. Entre les fêtes et le démenagement, il y a énormement de choses à faire et je commençe à être fatigué. C'est comme ça et je crois que je n'ai pas à me pleindre.

Gros becs d'Abuja....

4 days in Paris

So, we arived in Paris from Switzerland yesterday morning. We are here to visit our friends that we met in Abuja for two years ago and it has been exactly a year that they left Nigeria. We are staying at their place in Paris. Last night we were invited at one of their friend to have a BBQ dinner and to sing a "Happy Day" for one wedding that will take place on Friday. Apparently they prepared a song for the couple and it happened that we were there too, so we sang a song on the roof top with the view of Eiffel Tower and Paris during the night. It is a magical moment, standing there on the roof top and watching Paris became alive at night. And more there were a football match between French and Spain and of course French has won. PARIS screamed with the happiness but for us, we sang the "Happy Day" all the way until midnight. It is always a happy day anywhere for us.
During three days we've made a little visit at the place that we haven't been before but we did it very slow. We didn't want to make ourself stress out and the point why that we are in Paris, it is to visit our two friends (Stephanie and Olivier) who were working in Nigeria before. After one year we didn't see each other, I guessed we had a lots of things to say. So what we did is.....talking, ......visiting,......eating and eating....and hop..SHOPPING....and again eating! Since we don't have a good restaurant in Nigeria, everytime we saw the restaurant even if it's 4.00 o'clock in the afternoon, we must stop to get a little bite. But the problem with this little bite I guessed, both of us are taking the hell of a weight.

Big kiss from Paris to all.

Cuti....vacation......les vacances

English
So after few months in Abuja, actually we must get out of Nigeria, otherwise we could have a mental problem. This time we spent 10 days in Switzerland and 4 days in Paris. Since we arrived to Lausanne, what we do is......shopping.....eating.....and sleeping....and I don't know what else. But Laurent is sick!!!! He always think that he is a strong men, nevermind if he doesn't sleep....doesn't take a rest but he always forgetten that he's getting old....hehehehe. But here in Switzerland he still has an oppurtunity to see a "correct doctor", not like in Abuja. For me, holidays is everyday and everywhere even though when I am in Nigeria!!
So in Switzerland is likes everywhere in the world with.....the football fever.....luckly it isn't deadly!! The flags are hanging at almost every houses and apartments. But it isn't only a Swiss flag. Since Switzerland welcomed a lots of different nationalities, there are a lots of different flags too. We did the same in Malaysia but only for the 31st August (National Day).

Français
Après quelque mois à Abuja, il faut absolument que nous sortions du Nigeria, autrement nous pouvons avoir un problème avec le mental. Encore une fois nous venons en Suisse, mais cette fois ci seulement pour 10 jours et 4 jours à Paris. Depuis que nous sommens arrivés à Lausanne tout ce que nous faisons c'est ...les courses....manger.....dormir, et je ne sais plus quoi encore. Mais Laurent est un peu malade et ce n'est pas très drole. C'est comme ça....il pense toujours qu'il est fort, tant pis s'il ne dort pas, s'il ne se repose pas mais il a oublié qu'il est en train de veillir.......hehehehe. Heureusement nous sommes en Suisse maintenant pour que Laurent puisse voir "un vrai médecin" que nous ne trouverons pas au Nigeria. Pour moi, les vacances sont toutes l'année même quand je suis au Nigeria.
Alors, en Suisse maintenant c' est comme partout dans le monde entier.....la fièvre du foot...heureusement ce n'est pas mortèle. Avec toutes les différentes nationalités qu'il y a en Suisse, nous pouvons voir les différents drapeaux partout et cela est très harmonieux. En Malaisie, nous pouvons voir beaucoup de drapeaux seulement le 31 Aôut et c'est la fête nationale.

Few weeks in Abuja with Lukman

Hello to everyone that I know or I don't know. This is my first story in blog and I hope nobody will laugh at it. Now I am at Lukman apartment to create my blog. He is my second Malaysian friends that I met few weeks ago and of course we became a very best friend in the world at the moment, hopefully will last long even no matter where we are. There is not so many Malaysian in Abuja that is why sometime I really missed to speak malay. But now Lukman is here, so it has changed a little. But for my blog, I won't write in Malay because there is few person who doesn't speak malay.
