Partir à l’étranger pour une longue période, qu’il s’agisse de vacances bien méritées après des études réussies, d’une aventure d’expatrié, d’une année sabbatique. Quel que soit votre âge, partir à l’aventure reste une initiative passionnante pour les parents ou les grands-parents. Mais comment rester en contact ?
Chaque parent qui dépose son enfant à l’aéroport lui dit : « Préviens-moi quand tu seras arrivé ». Avec un cœur inquiet et en espérant que le message indiquera qu’il est sain et sauf. Puis commence les vacances ou le travail à l’étranger. Un appel téléphonique de temps en temps, quelques textos rapides et l’envoi de quelques photos. Il y a sûrement mieux à faire…
C’est également l’avis de Nico, un ancien stagiaire de Tribu qui a appris à nous connaître lors de son voyage en Nouvelle-Zélande et en Australie. Nico explique :
« Je suis allé en Nouvelle-Zélande et en Australie l’année dernière. C’était un voyage plein de paysages magnifiques, de rencontres incroyables, d’aventures folles et donc aussi beaucoup de photos. Lorsque vous êtes à l’étranger pendant quelques mois, votre maison, votre famille et vos amis vous manquent naturellement un peu. Heureusement, je pouvais régulièrement partager des photos avec eux, ou les appeler via whatsapp et me sentir plus proche d’eux.
Mais il a été beaucoup plus difficile de parler de mon voyage à mes grands-parents, avec qui j’ai une relation étroite. J’ai essayé 2-3 conversations whatsapp, quelques cartes postales,…mais tout cela semblait trop court, trop numérique, je n’arrivais pas à transmettre ce que je vivais et je trouvais cela frustrant. Les rares fois où je les ai eus au téléphone, la conversation s’est limitée à : « Comment allez-vous ? Est-ce que tu t’amuses ? Nous sommes impatients de voir les photos de ton voyage ! » C’était toujours pareil et je souhaitais que mes grands-parents profitent aussi du voyage que j’étais en train de vivre.
Un jour, j’ai reçu un SMS de mon cousin qui avait lu quelque chose sur les « journaux familiaux », un album en papier pour les grands-parents, créé en ligne par quiconque veut participer. J’ai choisi Tribu parce qu’il me permettait de créer une mise en page personnalisée et de raconter réellement mes aventures.
Il ne me restait que deux mois pour voyager, mais tout a changé pour mes grands-parents. Ils ont reçu leur « Tribu », l’ont regardé une fois, deux fois, cent fois,… Lorsque je suis rentré à la maison, j’ai pu calmement raconter les deux derniers mois de mon voyage avec eux et leur expliquer chaque détail.
Je veux juste dire un sincère merci à Tribu. Merci pour ce merveilleux concept qui m’a permis de faire profiter mes grands-parents de mon voyage. J’attends avec impatience le prochain voyage !”
WHAT IS FAMILEO AND TRIBU?
Famileo was created in 2015 to allow families to collect photos and messages in a gazette. The EHPAD teams print and distribute this to residents. With more than 2,500 establishments, it is the best-known software in France. The service was then extended to everyone. The application works with a fixed automatic layout that places two photos per page, with a gazette format and light paper. Prices vary depending on frequency, ranging from €5.99 to €17.99 per month.
Tribu was created to reconnect generations through a customizable family album. Users can share their photos through the app and each member of the family can layout text for up to 20 photos per page. The album is printed on high quality paper (magazine type), ecological, and is sent by post. A digital version (PDF) is also sent by email to all family members.
Both companies allow free shipping anywhere in the world and work through an app.
FAMILEO IS THE CHEAPEST AND TRIBU IS THE MOST QUALITATIVE.
Famileo offers a unique product of 16 pages for a maximum of 30 photos for which you can choose the frequency from one gazette per week to one gazette per month.

Neveo
Neveo is an application created and designed by three Belgian entrepreneurs. After wanting to share family news via a connected television, they decided to replace the television with a newspaper. Each month, families can send a journal with family photos and messages.
Using their app is relatively simple. You select the desired photos and import them to their application before the end of the month. You can add comments there if you wish. Regarding the layout, you don’t have to do anything, it is done automatically.
The choice of automating the layout simplifies the process of developing the journal but carries some obligations:
– 3 photos per page: Regardless of the choice of photo orientation, there are 3 photos on a page. If 3 photos are “vertical”, then the photos are very small
– Each photo must have text. As it is not always easy to put long texts on each photo, this often leaves a lot of blank space on the newspaper.
– The name of the person posting the photo appears in each photo.
At the end of the month, the newspaper is sent by post. The newspaper is printed on magazine-style paper. Regarding prices, you have the choice between a monthly or annual subscription, the price varies depending on the format of the newspaper. The monthly subscription costs €10.99 for a maximum of 30 photos per month. The annual offer amounts to €8.25 per month.
Famileo
Famileo is an application created in Saint-Malo in 2015 by two Bretons. Wanting to please their grandparents, they created partnerships with rest homes/Ehpads. They created a platform to collect family photos. It was the establishment which then printed the newspaper and delivered it to its residents.
Given the demand, they decided to open this service to everyone and therefore offer newspaper printing. This is how Famileo was born, with the slogan “The newspaper that makes grandparents happy”.
The way their app works is similar to Neveo. All you have to do is post the photos and messages that Famileo will collect.
As with Neveo, automatic layout makes the gesture easier but this has some consequences:
– On each page, only 2 photos are present. The orientation of the photo does not influence its size.
– As the photos are very large, the photos are not always of quality, this can spoil the journal a little.
– Each photo must have text and the name of the person posting the photo appears in each photo. This results in very empty (white) logs.
The gazette will then be sent to you by post. The type of paper is similar to a gazette and is much lighter. Concerning prices, there are subscriptions (of 30 photos maximum per gazette), where the price varies depending on the frequency: a subscription at €5.99 for one gazette per month; a subscription at €9.99 for a gazette every two weeks; a subscription at €17.99 for one gazette per week.
Tribu
Tribu, a human-sized company, was created by Arnaud de Cartier. Seeing his grandmother find herself alone, he wanted to create a newspaper that would allow all members of his family to easily give her news. Quickly joined in the adventure by Mathieu Chrétien, they seek to reconnect generations through a family journal!
Creating the journal at Tribu can be done on several platforms: you can share your photos via a computer and/or via the application on your phone. The advantage of Tribu is that you have the possibility to personalize your pages. You can choose to only put text or fill your page with up to 20 photos. All members of the family can create the layout and therefore participate in the happiness of their grandparents.
At the end of the month, the newspaper is sent by post and all members of the Tribe receive the digital version (pdf) by email. The newspaper is printed on quality paper (magazine type).
The little ecological bonus, Tribu plants a tree with each newspaper printed!
Tribu offers two types of newspapers. The standard newspaper and the premium newspaper. For each type of journal, there are three formulas: 1 month, 6 months and 1 year. The longer the subscription, the more advantageous it is. Thus, a one-year subscription to the standard newspaper costs €8.95 and the premium €18.95 per newspaper.
The standard journal has 15 customizable pages, can hold up to 280 photos and is printed on high quality paper (170g coated). The premium journal has 20 customizable pages, up to 400 photos per journal, even thicker paper and a harder cover and spine (200gr).
