Marc LeBlanc
Lausanne,
Switzerland
So I make an effort to be on time when I meet my friends. I always leave the house early to avoid
heavy traffic because I think it’s impolite to keep others waiting. Also, we never visit a friend’s house
without calling first. We almost always make plans to see friends. We usually plan to do something interesting, or go somewhere together.
