Music in the air, music in the ear (France, Paris)

Hi !

If I won’t be staring at mountains, glaciers, lakes and forests for a while, I can stare at all these people going places, doing stuff, looking busy, completely isolated from one another, even though there was some live music in the street.

Also, and I should probably think twice before announcing it, I think I would like to try a 52 photos challenge, i.e. a photo a week. Hopefully this one will kick off this challenge nicely, and a year for now I can look at a brilliant collection of 52 photos.

Enjoy (or not) and stay tuned !

Torres del Paine (Chile)

Hi !

I knew Parque Nacional Torres del Paine would be one of the highlight of this journey in South America. Trekking the W circuit was incredible, but left me unsatisfied of not spending more time chilling in the wonder of nature. So I came back for another three days.

Instead of going through a lengthy description, I’ll leave you with the picture I took from various viewpoint (mirador) during this second trip to the park.

I only regret not seeing the other side of this mountain. I should eventually return in a few years to try the O circuit (plus a couple other trek and some kayaking). The good part is that been familiar with this park now, it should be rather easy to plan for it.

Enjoy (or not) and stay tuned !
