Jeanne


Hello everyone! My name is Jeanne Chabot. I live in St-Jean-sur-Richelieu Québec, Canada. I speak French and English as well as some Spanish. I was born in Oromocto NB, grew up in Northern Ontario, near James Bay, in Moose Factory. Moose Factory is an island on the Moose River and the population is about 2000, most of which are Cree. (Wah-chay!!!) I left home at 18 to further my education in Québec city. It was while I was studying theology and Spanish at Laval University that I met my husband Marc. I have been to Paraguay (South America) on two occasions. The first time was for a missionary experience and I worked with street children in Asuncion. I lived 6 years in the Québec City area, three of them in St-Romuald on the south shore. My oldest son was born in 1994 in Québec City. My other three children were born in Prince George. In 1997, Marc and I were married and not long after we moved to Prince George. I took a hairdressing course in Prince George and worked first in a salon, then out of my home. In Prince George we became involved with the Cercle des Canadiens-Français and discovered the francophone community outside Québec. I also got quite involved with Development and Peace, a social justice group in the Canadian Catholic Church. We have just moved back to "La Belle Province" and I am looking forward to meeting new people and getting involved in the community here,... once I have the time!

I like many things. I love literature and enjoy both reading and writing. I also like music, (any kind) sports (volleyball, basketball, badminton, soccer, running, etc. etc. ... I now play in a co-ed soccer league in Saint-Jean), social and cultural events and activities, social justice, etc,... I also like to meet and talk with people, so PLEASE do not hesitate to send an e-mail or sign the guestbook!!!

I have a bachelor of Theology and a certificate in Spanish, both from Laval University, and I am a hairdresser. I worked at home in Prince George and eventually I would like to start up a hairdressing business here in Saint-Jean, so I can bring in a little extra money but still be at home for the children. We have yet to fix up the office downstairs (put tiles in instead of carpet!!!) Carpet, when you cut hair, is not really ideal :o! The tiles have been bought, we just haven't installed them yet.

Want to find out how much you know about me? Take the "How Well Do You Know Coucoumelle?" quiz I created on Tickle and see how you score. Coucoumelle is my nickname on that and other sites I belong to. Just click on this link and you'll be taken to my quiz.

Groups I belong to:

Catholic Community This one I don't participate in much, it's too huge and was taking up too much of my time to keep up to date with.
Mothering with Grace This one I participate in a lot. It is just the right size, not too busy, not too dead!
Famille Nombreuse This one I participate in from time to time. It is a French-language group for those with large families (3 and up).
