While Paris holds a special place in my heart, La Rochelle will always be home. It’s where my roots are, where my family resides, and where I find solace. despite relocating to the capital for my studies at 19, I maintain a strong connection to my hometown, returning monthly to visit my parents and share La Rochelle’s charm with my young daughter.
Given your La Rochelle roots, have you ever visited Gaston-Neveur?
absolutely! My high school friends attended Dautet and participated in sports there, while others played at Rupella. Whenever I’m in the area, I make it a point to check the schedule for any games. last season, I attended three Pro B matches, and I’m eagerly anticipating this weekend’s game (Sunday, January 19th at 4:30 p.m.). The excitement is palpable, and everyone I speak to is buzzing about it!
