Blogue d'un québécois expatrié en Angleterre. Comme toute forme d'autobiographie est constituée d'une large part de fiction, j'ai décidé de nommer le blogue Vraie Fiction.

A Gathering of Expats
As you may know, today is Saint John the Baptist's Day, also Quebec's National Day. I have been celebrating it as an expatriate since 2007, pretty much all by myself. Of course, now there is Wolfie, in this household, so I am not really the only Quebecker here, but he is still too young to understand or appreciate. Today, I found at total random that the Quebec government Office in London has a Twitter account and through this account I saw that they had organized a little celebration last Saturday, for expats and non Quebeckers. I should have thought about it before. I mean using social medias to know where and when my fellow expats live and when they gather for the 24th of June. Next year, I will see if our little family can go to some of these parties to celebrate our people. Wolfie will then be old enough to understand a bit more and more importantly to keep some memories of it. Sure, it will not be like the big concerts we have at home, but it could be fun.
That's great! Too bad you didn't learn about it early enough this year.
