Out of service

This is a pity. I just moved in a new house. Awesome! Incredible views, lots to explain, but there is very few coverage and no wi-fi. Which means that I can only use my phone with limited reception, and not really make any fancy stuff: no hot spot to feed my iPad or my computer,Continue reading “Out of service”

Here I am – Happy New Year!

I arrived at home, the new home, the one where I should feel home again after these few months in transit. The home I wish my loved ones will feel home too. A second home, but somewhere where we like to be. Sleeping for the first time here. It is empty, it smells strange, butContinue reading “Here I am – Happy New Year!”

Holidays

We met in Spain for Christmas… that’s the reason why I was off for few days. Bonding with my loved ones was not just great, there is actually no word for that… I was so happy to see them again, to feel them, touch them and kiss them!! I am not sure whether we wereContinue reading “Holidays”

Poem

The ocean was thundering: the water was agitated, the waves splashing on the rocks, and the wind, trying to find its way between the nude branches of the trees, was displacing the brown leaves on my path. But the sky was intense blue, white clouds moving fast and spreading around, and the sun, not warmingContinue reading “Poem”

On my way!

I got an airplane ticket for Bar Harbor Airport. Finally! So excited! My colleagues told me: “First time? They will ask for your weight! Don’t be afraid, their safety history is extremely good! Hopefully the weather is good when you’ll fly! In the winter? Oups, that’s risky…” I arrived about 1h30 before my flight, aContinue reading “On my way!”

Running in the cold

It was really cold this morning. -12 degrees Celcius. It was snowing during the night, and we could see the wind blowing in the trees and triggering local mini storm around the branches. Windy… It was my running day, so theoretically I should go out and run few miles. But I was sick last week,Continue reading “Running in the cold”

Schoodic peninsula

Schoodic peninsula is a bit more wild than the Mount Desert Island side of the Acadia Natural Park. It was some weeks ago, one of these very sunny days where you could count the clouds on the fingers of one hand. I wish you were there with me….

Finding a home

When I arrived in Maine mid September I moved into a cosy 2-bedroom half house on 2 levels (they call it condo here). It has a wooden terrace where I can check the outside temperature in the mornings and the stars in the night – you have seen this terrace many times in my pictures,Continue reading “Finding a home”

Encounters

I am spending quite a lot of time outdoor: running, hiking, walking to work, walking to school, walking around… but I realise that it is very difficult to see and pictured an animal. When we meet up suddenly with a wild creature, either we are scared that it will fight, or scared that it mightContinue reading “Encounters”
