new neighbors

Yesterday we met our new neighbors. A French scientific mission has settled camp only four miles from our base. Alex and François remained very vague about what they are working on. What a surprise… Honestly, to see new faces was good to me. I didn’t think that the first thing I miss would be people and that our camp would be so isolated from everything. Sometimes I dream of a warm bath and a glass of Chardonnay. God, if Alex could hear me he would laugh of such a feminine lightness as he says.
