Alone in a crowd.

You know it is a funny thing, as the show begins to motor and take on a speed all of its own I find myself becoming more in need to keep my distance.

Please don’t get me wrong, it is that special connection with people in our crazy world that so excites me about Visa pour I’ image but, to be able to meet and greet all the people I have to meet and greet, I have to travel around this town in Gilles' car. Gilles is my driver, my trusted companion, who probably knows far too much about my life, my loves and my business but, I trust him. If I walk to the Palais des Congrès from Pams it should be no more than a ten-minute walk but when the festival starts it can take me up to half an hour because I can not resist stopping and talking with all the great people who attend this festival. So please if you see me rushing past in a car do not think me distant it is just that I have yet another meeting to attend.

The show must go on.
