IV. Home spleen home
In the flakes of disillusion
Back in France after a feeling of “burn-out”, I spend seven months working in Chamonix in hospitality. Fall. Winter. Spring. Autumn is magnificent and I take the opportunity to go on many hikes in the valley, fascinated by the Mont-Blanc massif and the surroundings. The work in the restaurant is interesting at the beginning but the end of the year is very difficult. A large number of tourists and organizational and management problems make the days extremely exhausting. The depression that I have dragged for years explodes in my face and I endure several difficult months at the start of 2019. After a long black hole, I start to think and explore my mind in search of a way to a better state of mind.
