The most in the world!

After visiting many of the most beautiful places around the world, you may excuse that my standards have reached higher levels and by now, i barely go anywhere unless it's at least the most something in the world...

Here for example, just this morning, a train took me on the southern outskirts of Paris to a fascinating grey building, packed with grey corridors along which are aligned dozens of absolutely identical grey offices containing grey computers... judging by how packed the train was with people eager to get there, i was already sensing this was going to be special, but there i was now and i couldn't help thinking : this got to be the most boring place in the world!

And the good thing is that i'm now going to have heaps of time to explore and appreciate this new -and yet so familiar- environment of mine!




More seriously, the most scary thing of all is how quickly i got thrown back to my parisian life, finding everything unchanged exactly as i left it a year ago, and honestly, if it wasn't for this blog, i would doubt myself that i ever travelled anywhere and that it wasn't just one big fantastic dream!

The earth is round..

...I checked it for myself: after 11 months of travelling east, i finally made it back to my starting point!

It's a strange feeling when such a big project is finally behind you... it's like "so now what?!"

But i know there still will be more to come.. and i'll keep you posted!

The walls of Buenos Aires..

The last few days in Buenos have been pretty hectic and i found myself caught in a strange remake of Cube! But in spite of not seeing too much of the city, it was a great time and i mostly owe it to our hostess Katharine Davis.. thanks Katharine :-)

So just a last few walls before i say good bye to Buenos Aires...

and this was actually a window, but it still looked cool..

.. good bye Buenos Aires!

My album is out!!

Quick! Go get it!!!


(it's actually the Argentinian artist Charlie Garcia... but you'll have to admit it's somewhat striking!)
