Borneo, Malaysia, July 2009.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>I promise, I will come back to tell you about Asia, very soon. From my last escapade, in July, I still have to tell you about my island stay in Derawan, off Borneo, in the Celebes Sea. And then to edit my underwater videos shot in Sipadan...<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\ude44<\/p>\n<p>But since my return, at the end of July, another <em>overseas<\/em> trots in my head.<\/p>\n<p>A still vague project. I was hoping to make it happen in the spring, maybe. And then, a miraculous and unexpected free time slot appeared in my September schedule, at the very end of the month. Ah, there, there... How could I resist?<\/p>\n<p>So here it is: I decided to cross a new ocean, to go across the Atlantic. Destination? Montreal!<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.guidesulysse.com\/catalogue\/FicheProduit.aspx?n=Montreal-Guide-de-voyage-Ulysse&amp;isbn=9782894648797\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"attachment wp-att-1366 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/petitesbullesdailleurs.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/09\/ulysse.jpg\" alt=\"-\" width=\"220\" height=\"346\"><\/a>E-ticket booked on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.corsairfly.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Corsair<\/a>, found with the excellent search engine <a href=\"http:\/\/www.partirou.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Partirou.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>All I have to do now is read the travel guide <a href=\"http:\/\/www.guidesulysse.com\/catalogue\/FicheProduit.aspx?n=Montreal-Guide-de-voyage-Ulysse&amp;isbn=9782894648797\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><em>Montreal<\/em><\/a> from the Quebec publisher <a href=\"https:\/\/www.guidesulysse.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Ulysses<\/a>. thanks to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.librairie-voyage.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Pascal<\/a>for his advice on the subject, always wise. And to think that I still haven't found the time to dive into it... (Note that there is also a digital version to download, <a href=\"https:\/\/petitesbullesdailleurs.fr\/en\/guide-de-voyage-en-morceaux-20081113\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">like the Lonely Planet<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, for once, I don't take my diving equipment with me and I fly to the West instead of heading to the East!<\/p>\n<p>A first for me. I have never set foot on the American continent before.

But new discoveries, a change of scenery of another kind. An American and urban trip in French-speaking countries, which promises to be fascinating.<\/p>\n<p>How I love to feel that little trepidation inside, that excitement that is reborn with each new travel project. It's more than impatience. An irrepressible desire to go and see elsewhere... <em>overseas<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p>\ud83d\ude42<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I like this Anglo-Saxon expression.
