Obviously, returning to reality on a daily basis is difficult for Survivor Quebec players.
After Jean-Junior, who lived through quite touching episodes, Karine and Nicolas tell us how they experienced the return to normal life.
“It’s a pretty difficult part, I won’t hide that,” Karine told us in an interview.
“When I came out, I had a week where I wanted to achieve everything. I had a lot of projects and a week later I had a serious accident, so a short break from work. Basically it’s the feeling of nostalgia, the feeling of wanting to go back there. When I watch the broadcasts again and I see myself lying on the ground next to the fire, I want to go back there, it’s really strange, it touches us mentally. I think it will fade over time. I’m trying to find new projects here, at home, over the next week, next few months, so I’m looking forward to that. »
Survivor Quebec big winner Nicolas wasn’t spared from this spleen either. “Social reintegration is more difficult,” he says. “We’re in a game of constantly questioning whether your relationship with others is genuine and honest. There’s betrayal, moments you keep thinking about, and when you come back, it’s hard to go back to your normal life. How many times have I gotten into a spiral of brooding and thinking about the game and such and such that was said to such a person at such a time. It’s crazy, it lives in you. Now that the show is over it should help, but it was still hard making that return. »
Thankfully, players can now see each other (which wasn’t possible before), and this weekend the whole gang gathered at Karine’s chalet to celebrate the start of summer. Photos can be found here.
Sharing experiences together can help them move forward.
We wish everyone a relaxing summer!
