my buddy makes the news

If you read French, you might be interested in this article from the online La Nouvelle République about my friend Dominique Docoulombier and his new bed-and-breakfast, La Demeure du Marais, which I referred to earlier. I've been friends with Dominique since we met as high schoolers in 1986—my first-ever trip to Europe. I stayed a month in France on the Nacel "exchange" program (Nacel actually does non-simultaneous exchanges: one kid gets hosted by a family one year, then the other kid is hosted by the first kid's family the following year) and became fast friends with Dom and his family. More than friends, really: I think of the Ducoulombiers as actual family.

Bravo, Dominique!
