Hello everyone !
The novel “Robinson Crusoe” written by Daniel Defoe is inspired by a true story.
In 1704, following a disagreement with his captain, a Scottish sailor, Alexander Selkirk, was exiled to an island off the coast of Chile where he lived alone for four years.
On his return he had his story written, which inspired the famous book.
In 1966, the island was renamed Robinson Crusoe Island in homage.

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!
“In life we don’t do what we want, but we are responsible for what we are.”
Life is not always easy, for example with the successive crises we are going through, some companies have unfortunately had to cease their activities.
It's never easy, but we can think about stopping because it becomes too difficult, but we can also take the difficulties head on and choose to make new ways of working.
Putting down another person to draw attention to yourself, for example, is not for me. I am far from being a role model, but I strive every day not to let my past affect the people around me.
We all face difficulties, but that's no reason to take our hurts as an excuse to treat people poorly.
I remember this day when my colleague came to the store and someone from the world of board games was there. I wanted to stop her from speaking so that she wouldn't make a fool of herself in front of him, but she won't know that until today...
It is not because I suffer the abuses of his friends that, as I already told her, I would suddenly act in a negative way.
Just because I didn't get everything I wanted in life, or that people put obstacles in my way doesn't mean I'm going to reciprocate.
Fortunately for me, my humanity has always been stronger than anything I have gone through in my life.
I will always try to stay positive no matter what happens. Those who are around me know that I grumble a little sometimes, but that I am more of the type to see the glass half full.
Those who really know me know that, fortunately or unfortunately, I far too often give the benefit of the doubt to people who do not even deserve to have even the shadow of a doubt.
We are not responsible for what we experience, but we are responsible for what we are...
Good day and good game ;)

“Remembrance is the perfume of the soul”
The memory that those we appreciate more than anything remains in us like a unique perfume even if they are no longer there.
A perfume is also ephemeral, but as soon as you think of someone you loved, it’s as if you could still smell that perfume.
Memory is that moment outside of time that we have left that we can no longer relive except in our memory and our feelings.
Just as these smells that we smell remind us of a moment that we have experienced and make us nostalgic, memory is, as George d’Ormesson said, “the presence of the absent in the memory of the living”.
These moments that we share together around board games are all unique and unforgettable for me. They give color to my daily playful path…
I really liked it when the children at the Buis les Baronnies games festival with the Mistigri toy library discovered the games and came to ask me cute children's questions.
I particularly enjoyed playing the game with the children and teenagers at the Mac Donald in Saint Romain en Viennois.
My fun journey is enriched every day when we play together during game activities, during family workshops, during our discussions around games or daily life in Vaison...
I enjoyed creating memories by being a facilitator in Angers, Camaret and creating more with you, by bringing my smile and my dynamism.
You perfume my soul every moment we share the passion for board games together.
Sometimes bad but mostly good, I am only rich in these moments with you, so once again thank you to all of you. ;)

“There are no people worse deaf than those who do not want to hear. »
When you try to make your point of view understood by people who continue to talk when you want to have a conversation with them, but in vain, there is no point in persisting...
A conversation goes both ways or else it's nothing more than a monologue. Actions often speak louder than words with this kind of person...
When we try to calmly make a person understand that their behavior hurts us and they continue to do it, then there is no longer any point in talking to them about it.
Those people who are deaf to healthy adult conversations will never want to hear what you have to say to them anyway.
And finally, if you have done nothing to such people and they seek to harm you, they are indeed the most unfortunate.
For what ? Because they will have lost people who would have been there for them and the only thing they are doing to you by attacking you is to attract attention through gossip because when they talk about their lives no one listens to them...
I have often had to explain to adults that their behavior was inappropriate towards other people or myself. But now I would no longer waste my time or energy on people who have decided to turn a deaf ear to basic respect.
People who do not have basic respect will face my utter indifference. If adults are incapable of behaving like adults, it's not my problem, it's theirs.
I don't intentionally harm anyone, so people who want to harm me, that's okay, I don't care. I would never respond to your immaturity.
I have a clear conscience and I sleep soundly at night, because I don't have any weird plans to make behind your back. I am at the store as I am every day, frank and direct, trying to be polite so as not to hurt others.
I know that some people won't like it, but when I see who doesn't like it, it doesn't bother me... We can't please everyone anyway and fortunately, because that would mean pleasing no one...
Don't waste your time on people who are deaf to your existence, they are not worth it. I believe in you and I know you can be beautifully you. ;)

Hello everyone !

“Memory is the invisible presence.”
The presence of the moments we have experienced and the people we have known remains through the memories we have of them.
We don't see them anymore, but we can still enjoy them when we think about them and remember how we felt in those moments or with those people.
I always think of Andrée, 96 years old, with whom we played board games with friends when we were teenagers. As soon as I think of her, I remember her somewhat authoritarian side as a former teacher, but above all her gentleness of character and her desire to transmit.
I think of when I played during the first events at the store with Yanis, Marie, Asma, Thomas, Mathieu, etc.… and of the fits of laughter triggered by games of board games. As soon as I think about it, I remember them bickering nicely over who was going to score the last point.
I think of Serge who came to play games from a “new era” and which he ended up enjoying over time, before unfortunately leaving us a few months later. As soon as I think of Serge and those who left us on the way, these memories are all the more precious to me...
I think of this century-old neighbor who enjoyed talking about literature and also ate a lot of candy. As soon as I think of him, I remember our kind and open debates around literature and life in general and the advice I was able to draw from them.
I also think of this kind shopkeeper from a large Vaisonnaise family who told me to brace myself and ignore and reassured me and encouraged me with great sincerity and kindness. As soon as I think of her, I tell myself that when we work to get what we want and give ourselves the means to move forward in the direction of our projects, we can only end up getting there.
I think of my animation game players who allow me to share with them unique moments suspended in time. From the first game animation to the animations that I continue to animate on a daily basis, every moment shared with you is engraved in my memory. ;)
I also think of my Sereno players whom I am always very happy to meet at each game animation, because the diversity of their character makes the session always very lively and very interesting. :) As soon as I think of my Sereno players, I feel driven to offer original and varied games.
I think above all of my grandfather with whom I played battle from the age of 3 and chess from the age of 5 and who taught me that failure is only temporary and is a springboard to success. Whenever I think of my grandfather, I remember his determination and his caring and reassuring presence that led me to where I am today in my life.
I am rich from all these moments and these meetings, so thank you!

“Make your life a dream, and a dream a reality.”
I have always dreamed of evolving in a field that brings people together since I was little. I was often the one who tried to resolve conflicts to patch up friends who were arguing.
Because it would be a shame to lose people you care about over trivial things. There are times when unfortunately nothing can be fixed...
I have always believed and still believe now that we all have something to learn from each other and that our differences do not separate us, but teach us and bring us together.
I like to hope that on my modest scale as an independent store I will be able to bring together people who might not have dared to talk to each other without the game activities.
I have seen players get to know each other and become friends thanks to game animations and that delights me to the highest degree.
Every day I hear players tell me that they meet up for game evenings with other players they have met during game events or in stores.
I hope to see other initiatives continue to appear in Vaison and its surroundings (or even elsewhere) so that the world of gaming is no longer seen as elitist, but continues to open up to amateurs or initiates from all walks of life. .
I will pursue my goal of bringing people together through board games, because I like to share this passion with you. ;)

“Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. »
When I see a board game, I don't just see a board, cards, dice or pawns, I see moments together, smiles, laughter, complicity and conviviality.
From the games festival in Cannes, I like to observe the new products that will arrive in order to be able to offer you interesting fun nuggets.
I also love sharing with you moments around golden aces and other games that fascinate us, because more than games, these moments are unique.
I don't just see players in front of me, but enthusiasts, amateurs who are thirsty for fun discoveries, experts with whom I just as enjoy experimenting with more complex but still stimulating games.
I love tricksters who try to bend the rules of the game thinking that I don't see them doing it and that I'm not going to say anything... ;)
I love seeing the smiles appear on the faces of children who need them the most to thrive. :)
I love bringing even just a few moments of sharing and conviviality to all my players aged 3 to 103. ;)
I love seeing you open up to the playful world and sit around a table to play together.
Board games will always remain for me a way of getting to know each other and sharing unique moments together.

“To conquer without danger, we triumph without glory. »
Daily difficulties do not scare me, on the contrary, they are a source of motivation for me!
Because in times of difficulty, we step out of our comfort zone and learn to find a solution that we didn't already have at hand.
In the end, difficulty allows us to gain experience, because if we had not been confronted with it, we would not have been able to learn and evolve.
For example, the recurring network difficulties in Vaison forced me to organize myself differently and ultimately save time!
I also think of the backbiting and gratuitous nastiness that have allowed me to strengthen myself and live more peacefully from now on, even if they still take place.
You can't please everyone, otherwise it would be pleasing no one.
As long as I haven't hurt anyone, if people are angry with me for no reason, it's not my problem, but theirs...
I'm not the type who needs to do harm to gain attention, I prefer to try kindness even if it takes longer to work. ;)
Covid has put us all in difficulty in various aspects of our daily life and work. Thanks to a better balance between professional and personal lives, I was able and can continue to concentrate even better on your requests and playtime that suits you.
We might believe, when the difficulty falls upon us, that we will not find how to resolve it. But by thinking about alternative solutions, we can find more effective solutions or ones that we might not have thought of.
I did not think that Click and Collect could in the long term be a practical solution for some of my customers and I am satisfied that covid has allowed me to provide an additional useful service to those who use it!
In short, if life were too quiet, we wouldn't be pushed back to our limits and we would just pass by without learning anything, which I think is a shame!
Congratulations to all these companies who go through and continue to go through crises and trials and hold on!
Congratulations to all those who did everything they could to hold on and good luck with their new projects, may they bring them satisfaction!
Thank you to everyone who progresses alongside me at the store and in life in general.

You will also be able to see that the general shape of the men forms a “V” for Vaison and a delighted smile for the rapprochement of the characters via board games.

Board games are now aimed at all types of audiences, from beginners to game enthusiasts, with family or friends while maintaining an “expert” part that appeals to more seasoned players.
I have played games in Vaison, its surroundings and in many other places and I am very happy to always be able to offer you these game times that I particularly like!

The Highlands, Scotland
The Highlands are a mountainous region to the north and west of the Highland Boundary Fault which runs through Scotland from Arran to Stonehaven.
This very sparsely populated and infertile region is covered with hills and mountains, several peaks of which exceed 1,000 meters in altitude, the Grampians Mountains to the south and the mountains of the Northwest Highlands to the north.
Thus, the highest peak in Scotland and the British Isles, Ben Nevis, rises to 1,345 meters above sea level in the Grampian Mountains.
These two massifs are separated by the geological fault of Glen Mor in which the Caledonian Canal stretches which connects the North Sea to the Scottish Sea and, beyond, to the Atlantic Ocean.
This canal passes through three large lakes: Loch Ness (famous for its so-called monster), Loch Lochy and Loch Oich.
The fictional Hogwarts School is located in the Highlands in the Harry Potter saga.

“We are more likely to turn towards the rising sun than the setting sun.”
We all love these games that bring us together and that everyone knows, because almost all of us know how to play them.
Because these games are reassuring and sure values that appeal to a large majority.
But there are also fun nuggets that we didn't expect and which arrive and surprise us with their accessibility and their incredible playability and replayability.
I have also chosen to offer you games in the store, but not only that... You will also find lesser-known games, but just as good as the others, because they offer a new approach.
During the Golden Aces and the International Games Festival in Cannes, the games benefit from the effect of the rising sun and are highlighted there.
In the setting sun, when you are very curious, you can also discover beautiful, playful nuggets that are not as highlighted.
These games from small publishers which do not benefit from the optimal light of a large distribution house but which offer playful wonders.
As you may already know, I am a curious serial gamer long before being the manager of my little store.
So, for me, little fun nuggets like for example Hive by Ludidistri and other wonders that go unnoticed always interest me…
So if you want to join the game enthusiasts who come to discover these fun nuggets from me and the other independents who offer them, you are always welcome. ;)

Hello everyone !
Welcome to a new opus of “JJV Offs”!
“Once the game is over, the king and the pawn are both placed in the same box. »
When the game ends, all the game pieces return to the box. At that moment, they are all on an equal footing, but before they all participated in a more or less calm game.
We do not necessarily have the same game or the same hand at our disposal. But knowing how to use an unfavorable hand to learn its weaknesses and make an experience of it is a great feat.
Starting from a position of strength is not always a guarantee of a winning game. Depending on the cards or pawns that appear during the round, the course of the game can change at any time.
Just as a failure does not necessarily leave us checkmate, whether we place our pawns well or not, sooner or later we end up learning from our mistakes.
The trump card will not always be in our favor, but by combining our positive and negative experiences we end up finding the combo that suits us.
I didn't start from an easy life, people put obstacles in my way and they continue to put obstacles in my way even today, but I would never take the hand of returning the medal.
In the end, failures, if we want to continue to believe in them, learn from our mistakes and be comforted by our successes, it is already a victory.
And at the end of the game, once the pawns and kings are placed together in the same box, what will remain above all with us is the memory of the games and moments that we shared with those who mattered most to us….
Good day and good game ;)

Lake Königssee
Königssee in the Berchtesgaden National Park whose towering Alpine rocks fall almost vertically towards the lake shore, which measures 192 meters at its deepest point.
The echo of the world-famous Königssee on the steep rock walls is an integral part of the navigation.
Behind the St. Bartholomä peninsula stretches the immense eastern wall of Watzmann. In St. Bartholomä, the pilgrimage church built in 1134 impresses with its famous burgundy domes.
The 400-year-old smokehouse, where Königssee fishermen used an ancestral tradition to transform arctic char into “Schwarzreiter”, by smoking them over birch wood, a unique specialty specific to Königssee.

“Happiness is a habit to cultivate. »
Since I started the store, 6 years ago now, I always enjoy it every day.
I like to share these moments around board games with you, because beyond just playing a game, we share a unique moment.
I enjoy spending quality time playing board games every day and our discussions at the same time warm my heart.
These moments always teach me more about you and open me up to other life experiences, which for me is always enriching.
I try every day to see the bright side of things as much as possible, even if life doesn't always have good sides. Things won't get better if you think everything will go wrong.
It’s as if we wanted to run a race, but said we didn’t want to try because we would surely lose; when we have already lost since we did not want to try...
And believe me I am not spared from difficulties, but if we do not learn from all these experiences that life offers us then we remain in a position of perpetual waiting.
Happiness can be cultivated and through habit, we manage to see the experience that the bad trials we go through also offer us…
I learned to take a step back to allow the store to develop and offer you new things every day.
Ultimately, the mean things done against my store to demean it only strengthened it even more than before!
So thank you to all those people who say no, who put obstacles in the way, who belittle my store because you allow it to continue to progress even more than I had planned to do myself^^.
I plan to continue to mostly see the positive side of things, because that's the person I am and what benefits my store the most.
Good day and good game ;)

“It is by stumbling that we learn to walk. »
Like when we are children, when learning to walk we stumble very often, and yet, that does not stop us from getting up and continuing to learn to walk...
I have failed at certain things in the past. I think, for example, of keeping calm in the face of provocative people to annoy us.
I never insulted them, but yes I got momentarily angry, because I thought at the time that we always had to protect ourselves…
Then, over time, I realized that calm and ignoring provocation or denigration were much more comforting than wanting to be right at all costs.
Defending yourself against people who only see problems where there are solutions is often useless, because they will find other problems in the solutions that we have found again...
I decided to move forward and not dwell on when will we say about people who are determined to judge me without even trying to know me…
However, I wanted to apologize to the people to whom I was able to respond curtly when they insulted me or openly disrespected me...
Not for them, but for me, because they clearly had no business disrespecting or insulting me... But I shouldn't have wasted time giving them importance...
I nevertheless thank these people who allowed me to question myself and progress towards a better version of myself, more serene and determined to continue to develop my store in a lasting way...
And above all, thank you to all those people who, on a daily basis, support me, believe in my playful project and with whom I share with joy and pleasure the most beautiful things the gaming world has to offer. ;)
