    L’amour à distance : entre la France et l’Australie avec Evan (relation, compromis, communication)

    Dans cet épisode, on plonge dans la réalité d'Evav, qui vit une relation à distance entre la France et l’Australie. Comment construire une histoire d’amour quand on se trouve à des milliers de kilomètres, séparés par les fuseaux horaires et les saisons inversées ? Evan nous raconte les défis du quotidien — des appels vidéo décalés aux billets d’avion planifiés des mois à l’avance - mais aussi les petites habitudes et attentions qui entretiennent la complicité malgré la distance. On parle des différences culturelles qui s’invitent, des frustrations de vivre « un jour d’écart », et de la joie immense des retrouvailles. Un épisode sincère et rempli d’espoir, qui rappelle que l’amour n’a pas besoin d’une adresse postale pour exister et grandir. relation a distance, voyage, amour, complicité, communication

    Turning Passion into a Passport: Quentin's Sweet Career Abroad (Pastry Chef, Learning Skills, Passion)

    In this episode, we whisk up something a little different — a conversation with Quentin, a French pastry chef who’s taken his talent far beyond the borders of France! From French kitchens to pastry counters across the globe, Quentin shares what it’s really like to build a career that travels. We chat about the cultural surprises he’s faced in international kitchens (England and Australia), how pastry standards shift from country to country, and what it takes to keep your passion alive while adapting to new environments. Along the way, he opens up about the sweet (and not-so-sweet) lessons he’s learned, the moments that made him grow, and the pride of knowing his craft can take him just about anywhere. Whether you’re dreaming of a global career or just love a flaky croissant, this episode serves up inspiration with a side of buttery realness. 🥐✈️ Grab a pastry and press play — Quentin’s story is one for anyone who's ever wondered, "Could I do what I love… anywhere in the world?"

    Coming Home… But Feeling Different with Jo

    After spending time abroad, going back home can be… strange. Comforting, emotional, but also disorienting. In this episode, we chat about what it’s really like to return to your roots after living away—how you might have changed, how home might have changed, and how to navigate all those mixed feelings in between. We talk nostalgia, reverse culture shock, growing up while being gone, and the quiet realisation that sometimes, the place you left behind doesn’t quite fit the same way anymore. homecoming, travel, expat, return, nostalgia, change, identity, growth, reflection, emotions, belonging, distance, journey, reverse, culture, memories, transitions, abroad
