Ha Long Bay is really famous, but it is definetely a place to see. It's impossible to catch the beauty of it in a small watercolor, but I painted one though and it was a pleasure to sketch there during that peaceful morning. /
La baie de Ha Long est super touristique, mais c'est tout de même un lieu à voir une fois dans sa vie. La beauté de cet ( Read more... )

We're back from our trip in Vietnam. It was amazing, but too short !
I'm happy I choose a local agency (Vietnam Adventure) to organize our trip. It was really fun and full of surprises. We were just the two of us with guides and a driver, and we spent most of our time away from tourist's places. We met so many friendly people. We even went to a ( Read more... )

Yesterday I went hiking to Le Col de la Colombiere where I often go. But this time it was almost impossible to park the car because it was crowded by motor caravans. People were there to be sure not to miss Le Tour de France !

Il y a deux semaines, avec Bann et Ben, nous avons fait une rando dans les Bauges. C'était super beau. J'adore cette période de l'année pour ( Read more... )

Some weeks ago we went to the Puteaux Comic Book Festival, as guests. We met old and new friends there. It was an interesting festival. They took us to have diner, on a bateau-mouche, in Paris by night. I wouldn't have done that sort of tourist activity by myself, but in the end it appeared to be fun and beautiful to cruise on La Seine river. Here ( Read more... )

Tonight the moon is so pretty I wanted to share it with you.
I took this (blurry) picture from my window, using my cheap bird watch telescope and a small camera.

Ce soir la lune est tellement belle que j'avais envie de partager ce spectacle avec vous.
J'ai pris cette photo (floue) en utilisant ma longue-vue ornitho et un vieux compact numérique.

I'm late, but I want to share with you pictures of the cake my mother cooked for my birthday this year. Once again, it was beautiful and tasty. She used a lot of chocolate and almonds to cook it.
/ Je m'y prends un peu tard, mais je voulais quand même partager avec vous les photos du gâteau d'anniversaire que ma mère m'a fait cette année. Une fois ( Read more... )
