Alecse Jardel
Born on 16/12/1973
Founder & CEO at Biobble

1989
Why that year rather than another, I can’t say. I spent my teenage years living for the weekend, and in anticipation of projects to come: 2 full days of spending time with my buddies : Gordon, Henry, Lumir, Désirée, Charlotte, Alban, Pouic, Amandine, Cerise... In those days, in a café, 12 of us could sit at a table for 6 and order 2 coffees for just 10 francs.

1 January 2006 - 18 January 2007
I'm back! Finally I've gotten access to this diary. This has been quite a year. I saw my brother Tony for the first time in 4 years. He was married, to a lovely lady named Christy, and they just bought their first home. (Someone's doing things the right way; and it's certainly not me.)

I, on the other hand, have taken a few more years to get myself together. I met a sweet, wonderful man. (After all the bad ones I went through) We've done a LOT of traveling as well. To Costa Rica, SanFrancisco, New York, Paris, Mazamet, Toulouse, and Barcelona. And back to Val D'Isere this March.

So there's the present. I'll be back to tell the past!
