C'est une première expérience sur ce blog littéraire. Le texte ici publié n'a pas été écrit par moi, mais par un aîné basé en Franche-Comté, amoureux des lettres, promoteur de rencontres littéraires à Besançon, et universitaire, j'ai nommé Jean-Michel Nzikou.

Now more than 2 years later I'm putting on a graduation gown and we are packing up our Uhaul to head back to Florida. It's all over and I almost cannot believe that it has gone by this fast. Reflecting back on all the friendships we made, the foods we ate, the road trips we took and the experiences we had; it was an incredible time which will leave an indelible footprint on our memories.
