Upon return, I got busy with work. Many of my students were having their final exams. My school G10 students had their board exam. When I went to meet them on the day of exam, I realised how much I had missed being between children. Their smiles and their talks made me happy.  I met a few friends of mine over lunch or breakfast. It is always good to catchup with friends after a long time. I went to the Alliance française to watch a good French film and a concert. It reminded me of my days as student there. Slowly, after Covid, alliance française is gaining its charm - more events are being planned.
