Cathy Derruder

I have been a history and geography teacher in France since 2005.
In 2013, I embarked on a world tour with my first son, who was 3 years old at the time, and my husband. Upon reaching Polynesia in 2014, we decided to change our lives and settle down, all while acquiring a restaurant: the Belvédère.
Transitioning from a teacher, I became the manager of an establishment and a team leader. After 3 years of managing, I missed teaching, so I decided to combine both professions. Understanding one's history and surroundings seems essential for progress in life. That's why I do everything in my power to make children love History and Geography while having fun and respecting each other.
A quote by Mark Twain resonates with me: "They did not know it was impossible, so they did it."
