I have a group of cafes and coffee shops that I go to regularly. They usually have an area where I can plug in my computer and have a corner seat where I can do a couple hours of writing or whatever, even the noise of the surrounding people walking by.

All the difficulties surrounding the making of ‘Mars et Avril’ actually fueled its creativity and contributed to its international success!
I guess over the course of time, I started to open up to a lot of the issues surrounding the oceans.
