The picture of today is in mood for Christmas and leaves a message for everyone try to see the world in a different way. Pay attention to details, discover the new and let your imagination take you.
On our summer last day, we were very tired because of the city walking at Dubrovnik, on the south of Croatia. The last activity of the day was going to the beach and we were gifted with this twilight that had renewed our energies and made us see that everything was worth it.
La Defense, the modern district of Paris. I’ve been there in 2009 and I was delighted with the contrast… the classic and romantic Paris from one side and the business one from the other and so close. The name is a tribute to the soldiers who fought for France in World War II. Today we would think that this name also could be to defend the money, because La Defense is the biggest financial center from Europe.
Driving to Chicama at the midway. The path is a moonscape desert, sometimes some vegetation, high mountains touching the clouds with lots of rocks and boulders. The mountains close to the roads have big stones that can’t roll, because there is no rain, wind or storms in this place.
Traveling by car in Morocco we found a serpent enchanter waiting for tourists in front of the Aït Benhaddhou Kasbah. It was a show with snakes and scorpions that let us afraid.
I went trekking in CERRO COCODRILO in POTRERILLOS and ACONCAGUA PARK. Up there you can see some eagles and let your mind wonder, while you admire the view. I also went “radical” rafting in the Mendoza river(almost had my teeth broken with the paddle during a violent wave), but it was amazing to face those waters and the view in The Andes. The river is brown because of the desert and has a lot of rocks that you do not see, you only feel them scratching the bottom of the boat.
Finding kangaroos on the sea shore!! An incredible place, full of surprises. kangaroos were drinking water from a creek, in Lucky Bay Beach. A beautiful moment, happened on new year’s eave 2010.
Go up on Eiffel Tower early in the morning is the best hour to avoid lines. Besides see the horizon, you should look at downward and watch the parisian’s routine at Champ de Mars. Choose a sunny day and get ready for the cold weather, if you go in the winter like me.
Mendoza is the perfect place for the fans of extreme sports and good wine. The views in this region of Argentina are beautiful and embrace Aconcagua, the highest mountain in America (only losing to the Himalayas).
Urubici is the highest point in Santa Catarina and It already registered the lowest degree in the country, -17,8ºC in 1996. It was in the morning, before leaving for a trail at 7:40 PM, that I had the pleasure of taking this photo when the city was hidden by a fog typical from the region. It seemed like I was on clouds.
