The Home Stretch

Five months ago, I took a plane to France to start a new life as a circus artist in Europe. The creation was long, challenging, and at times, never ending. Suddenly, the premiere was upon us, and ready or not, it was show time.

Then, as suddenly as the tour started, we’re on the last leg of this first portion of the tour. After shows in Salins-les-Bains and La Rochelle, we’re now in Montpellier for two weeks and then that’s it. Two months off. Two months that will find me back in Montreal for a few short days, followed by six weeks working on the boardwalk in Santa Cruz, California, then back to Montreal for a week and a half of real vacation.

In case you were wondering, jet-setting is overrated.

But before I can go home and head to the west coast, I need to survive the hot hot heat that is Montpellier. And I do mean survive…
