"Pénélope, tu n'es pas ici par hasard. Tu veux vivre quelque chose, ton cœur brûle, ta tête t'assaille de réflexions, mais tu refuses d'aller plus loin, tu refuses de plonger. Tu restes spectatrice et tu rumines. C'est ça ton grand voyage ? Tu sais, chaque individu a un rôle à jouer. Chaque personne peut utiliser la force de son esprit pour devenir acteur de son existence et du monde qui l'entoure. Ensemble, à force de réflexions et d'actions, nous ferons de ces ruines un palais." Ceci est une odyssée. Un périple au cœur de nos doutes, de nos errances, de nos tempêtes.

In fifth grade my teacher set us up with pen pals from a different school. Thinking I was a girl, with a name like Misha, the other teacher paired me up with her student Ryen.
