Monday morning again
about François Beaurain
There is a beautiful expression in French for the daily work routine, it is “métro, boulot, dodo” which means “subway, work, sleep”
Although I am no longer an office employee and I can lay in my bed as long as I want — and not only on monday mornings — I have feelings for those who have to fight 9 to 5 spleen on a daily basis.
This project is specially dedicated to commuters, stressed-out executives, people in the middle of their life crisis or who will hit it soon.
I hope you will have the chance to discover it on your way to work — preferably on a rainy day — and that they’ll make you smile.
François Beaurain was born in Bordeaux, France in 1976.
