Why Are the French Cold? – Comparing France and Indonesia!

In this episode, I talk about two big cultural differences I’ve noticed between France and Indonesia.In France, religion is discreet, we live in a secular country where faith rarely shows in everyday life.

In Indonesia, it’s the opposite: religion is everywhere, in the streets, restaurants, smells, sounds. And then there’s the human warmth: people here are open, welcoming, and always ready to talk… while in France, we often seem a bit cold at first.

Two cultures, two ways of seeing the world, and me, somewhere in between, learning to see things differently.

Finding Your Passion – Even When You Think You Don’t Have One

Having a passion often sounds like something obvious. Some people find it very young, others seem to have many… and then, there are those who feel they simply don’t have one.

I used to be one of them. For years, I didn’t feel truly passionate about anything. Until I decided to search for it, to try new things, even to “force it” a little.

That’s how I eventually discovered surfing. It wasn’t instant love, but with time and persistence, it became an essential part of my life.


In this episode, I share my personal story and why I believe passion can be learned and cultivated.

It’s a calm and honest episode, perfect to practice your French while reflecting on your own journey with passion.

Mystery Movie #2 – He’s Being Watched…

Here the whole story 👇🏼


Il vit dans une jolie petite ville au bord de la mer.

Tout est calme, propre, parfait.

Il a une femme, un meilleur ami, un travail stable, et une maison bien rangée.

Sa vie semble normale, très normale.

Mais… quelque chose cloche.


Un jour, une lumière tombe du ciel.

Puis, il entend son nom à la radio, comme si quelqu’un parlait de ses moindres gestes.

Petit à petit, il se pose des questions.

Pourquoi les gens autour de lui répètent les mêmes actions chaque jour ?

Pourquoi sa femme lui parle comme dans une publicité ?

Et pourquoi tout le monde évite de répondre à ses vraies questions ?


Il commence à tester les limites.

Il essaie de quitter la ville, mais quelqu’un l’arrête.

Il veut voyager, mais les routes sont bloquées.

Il sent qu’on le surveille, qu’on le suit, qu’on l’empêche de penser par lui-même.


Il découvre alors un secret incroyable :

Depuis sa naissance, il est observé.

Il est le personnage principal d’une émission de télévision.

Tout ce qu’il vit est faux.

Sa ville est un immense décor.

Les gens qu’il connaît sont des acteurs.

Même sa femme joue un rôle.


Mais lui… ne veut plus jouer.

Il veut vivre une vraie vie.

Alors il prend une décision.

Il quitte le monde qu’on a créé pour lui.

Il choisit la liberté, malgré la peur.

Il traverse la porte vers l’inconnu.
