During your travels in South America or the Maghreb countries, have you come across Michel Plumier? He's Belgian, worked in Algeria, and likely in South America as well. Thanks to anyone who might have news of him.
Looking for Michel Plumier, Belgian
by Denali83
Translated into English.
To be able to help you, I’d need more info!
Age – what year did he work in Algeria, and in what field? Which company? For Algeria, depending on the details, I might be able to help!

Yes, you're absolutely right.
Michel would now be around 60–65 years old. He worked as an architect during the construction of the Oujda dam. I don’t remember the name of the company, but he was housed by them in Algiers.
Around the mid-1970s, he had a job offer in South America but was hesitant to go. That’s when none of his friends heard from him again.
He was a huge traveler—he’d traveled extensively across Europe, Turkey, Jordan, Iran, Iraq... He did all his trips in an old deux-chevaux with wild colors (including Paris-Persepolis-Paris).
I know it’s been a very long time, but every other search method has failed. This "message in a bottle" is the only option we haven’t tried yet.
Thanks for replying.

There’s a Michel Plumier on Pagesblanches.be.

Thanks a lot, unfortunately they’re just namesakes... Too bad. Thanks for your help!
Hi,
I know Michel Plumier, an architect who worked in Algeria. He’s been working in Belgium, in Brussels, for MDA Consulting for about twenty years and lives in Uccle.

Thanks so much for your reply. You're right, it could very well be him. I'll focus my search in that direction now.
I’m the Michel Plumier you’re looking for. I did indeed work in Algeria and, at 24, took a big trip across Asia in an old 2CV, especially to Persepolis. Could you tell me who you are?

I’d love to get news about a Norwegian couple, Werner and Marianne Loslie, who traveled the world on foot for 23 years with their three donkeys and five dogs. Maybe they have a website or wrote a book about their journey.
Hi there,
I traveled to Chile several years ago. I met a family who lived in a suburb of Santiago, Chile. Finding this family again would be a great joy. So I’m reaching out to the French-speaking community there for help. Feel free to contact me privately, and I’ll provide all the details I have.

Hello,
I’m looking for Richard Sibanga (Masule), who is of Namibian origin. He lives in Windhoek and is likely a high school teacher.
He earned a master’s degree in geography from the Sorbonne and Paris 10 (Nanterre) in France around 1996 and 1997.
I’d be incredibly grateful if anyone with news of him could contact me as soon as possible, since I haven’t heard from him since 2010.
Hello fellow VFers,
A long time ago, a great group of young backpackers, mostly from Quebec. We met during a trip to Crete (Greece). More specifically at a youth hostel in Mirthios.
Anyway, we celebrated Christmas. There was a Quebec flag on the wall. We even wrote our names on a sheet with some drawings.
Just for fun, what have you all been up to? Are you VFers?
I was the backpacker on a bike (cycle tourist).
Cheers, 🙂

Hello,
I’m looking for a friend, Arnaud DEVIS, who’s 44 years old. We haven’t heard from him since July 5th. He was on a cycling trip from Perpignan to Gibraltar, and on July 5th, he was between Malaga and Mijas. The language barrier is really a drawback here. If you have any information about my friend, please don’t hesitate to reach out.
Thank you.
Emy.

Hello,
I lived in Yaoundé from December 1965 to June 1971 full-time, then I only returned for the long holidays until 1975.
I was at the downtown school and then at Lycée Général Leclerc from 6th to 9th grade.
I’m looking for people who were my age back then.
I’d like to write a book about that special time in my life.
Here are a few names:
Philippe Bourigan
Brigitte Bourigan
Roland Cauvet
Serge Djamkepo
Marie-Françoise Prudent, who worked with my mother at the French mission for aid and cooperation
Brigitte Botela, with whom I danced my first slow dance
Francis Derozario (former Air France pilot)
Thierry Pakis, who had a jewelry shop
Jean-Michel Blondel, whose father was a gendarme
Marina (I no longer have her last name)
Brigitte, who lived near Aix-en-Provence
François, who had a Suzuki
and so many others

I’m looking for a man I met 42 years ago in Calvi, Corsica. His name at the time was Ayat Azir, and he’s Turkish from Izmir. He was in the 2nd REP with the French Foreign Legion. It’s been a long time, but I’d really love to find him again. Thanks for your help.
I'm looking for anyone who knew the old Amporaha holiday camp (north of Nosy Be).
