I am French,
well my parents are French and yes I was brought up in a French house hold, er... I mean boat!
But we did not live in France, nor was I born there, my oldest brother is the only one that was born there...
My Parents left France, in the early 70's, on the fishing boat my father owned. He was a fisherman by trade, but that was not going too well for him and at the time there was a huge exile to India, Asia the Hippy movement as we all know it. My Mother Dreamt of going to India, and my Father had even bigger dreams...So the lifted the anchor and were never to return, or for just short stints!!!
Us children were born along the way...Along the journey!
I was born in Spain...Palma de Malloca.
Then my sister Anais was born in Djibouti and Jonathan was born much later in Costa Rica...Morgan, the oldest was born in France...And actually he is not the oldest, I have another brother, that is some sort of Taboo subject, as he drowned at the age of 4...He is the oldest!!
We were raised on this fishing boat, travelling and making money along the way...Doing all sorts of things really. My father is a very resourceful man, and back in the day, yes life was easier...And living on a boat, under the tropics where we could fish fish, pick coconuts and enjoy a carefree life we really did not need much!!!
I did not go to school none of us did. My father did not believe in school, he believed in the school of life!!
He himself started working at the age of 13, as they did back then....
yet I did to to school in South Africa, for about 2 years, when I was 7 years old...So that is why my English is perfect and most people think I'm South African, not French...yet I would love to have that very sweet French accent, I'm working on it!!!
I have travelled a lot, seen a lot and forgotten a lot too!!!
