Hello everyone,

Anyone out there in New York City? I’ll be moving there at the end of June or early July for a couple of years! I’m following my husband, who will be working at the Permanent Mission of Canada to the United Nations.

“Be ready to be surprised” we say in OS? Well, this was a big surprise, and a good one too!

I’ll have a work permit for the States so I’d welcome any info, tips or ideas that I could explore to work with NGOs, UN agencies, governments, the private sector, and communities. I’m all ears. And if you need a hand in opening space, I’d be happy to help!

I’ll remain a Canadian de facto resident, and I intend to continue to be active in Quebec and all over Canada. This is a temporary move and I don’t want people here to forget I exist! My e-mail won’t change, and New York is only a few hours from Montréal. In fact, I plan to keep organizing the Montréal Cercle Forum ouvert (Stammtisch) every two months. Our last gatherings were quite inspiring.

Tree, when I saw the PS to your message about who’s going to WOSonOS, needless to say it resonated with me! It’s a superb opportunity and I’m being open to all that can be. I won’t be lap swimming outdoor all year round, but it’ll certainly be a wonderful adventure to live and hopefully open space in the Big Apple and elsewhere.

I hope I can get to San Francisco and meet some of you in person at the end of July but I’ll have to decide at the last minute. It will all depend on how the move goes. I’m confident that it’ll go just fine. Whoever… Whatever… Whenever…

Cheers!

Esther Matte
