Same for me.

It part of the protesting movement against the megabassine in what protesters call now the “water war”. The objective of this particular protest was to block the port of the city of La Rochelle which is considered by protester to enable the owner of the megabassine to do the business that require such a big use of water. The mouvement has its own french wikipédia article . You can use a translator to learn more about it there.

It’s nice. I’m use to customise the transparent case that come with the phone by cutting reused printed paper in the form of the case and placing it in there but I never made a case myself.

That’s very interesting. The house is looking nice, the costs are not high and open source plan… Oh my!

But North American seems to live in an other world sometime. My whole family live in a flat the of his “small” house. The flat is on the smaller side, yes, but it is not crowded and the house presented is not even small for a couple with two kids.

Isn’t it the same if people dry their clothes out ?

Big mistake here : Calling change in Paris change in France. Paris metropolitan area is basically its own small world within France, things that happened in Paris usually don’t apply, or at least don’t apply the same, in France.

Living outside of Paris I can tell you we see that there is fast change there and it seems to be for the better in term of city livability. Still, this is still not much spread out into parisian suburbs which always had the worst live conditions.
In other big city, change toward ‘15 minutes’ cities are happening much slower if at all and in towns and rural France the concept non existant.

My group of friends and I rent a bus for our yearly trip. Sometimes with driver, sometimes without when one of has the licence. Where we less, we would rent or borrow a mini-bus. And I’m regularly borrowing and renting vans and cars for trips for just a few.

Personal car ownership can be greatly reduce while still improving personal transportation convenience. Of course, at some point, it might become slightly less convenience for the individual passanger but the benefit for society would still compensate it.

I love it. It’s not a study plan but more a serie of mini goals that will make you progress if reach them. It is also a very fun way to track your progress.

Thank you for the advice. Telenevolas are great to learn indeed. I used to watch Totalmente Demais, a Brazilian show dubbed in Spanish and it was very easy to understand. In essence only 4 things happened : love, hate, jealousy and work shenanigan related to one of the previous.

But for now, I’m only looking for subtitles. I’ve got the videos but no sub and I don’t know were to look for them.
