Yes, I am a scavenger. I am always looking around for whatever rejects and trashed objects are laying around for me to pick them up. I give those things a second life. I recycle, reinstate, reclaim, refurbish, and renovate. ‘Wiederverwertung’ in German; giving things a new value again. Récupération … Emmaüs.
Abbé Pierre! Emmaüs ou venger l’homme. The book.

This time I found egg trays and a big file holder. The egg trays will serve to improve the acoustics in one of the classrooms of the Candlelight Academy. A classroom with disturbing echos. The fileholder has already found its proper purpose on top of my wardrobe. Life is good when you are in the knowledge of recycling and reclaiming.

Oui, Mesdames et Messieurs. On fait bien la récupération!
