Since Abdul got a job as a teacher, he has sailed a distance equivalent to the English Channel. This is the maritime zone that separates France from England. With the help of a small float and with all his belongings in a plastic bag, Abdul goes to the river in summer or winter. Every day he needs to swim along the river for about a hundred meters, which divide the two banks, in order to arrive at the lesson in time and teach his students.
