travelers stories about Town in Gordes, France

Town in Gordes, France

  30 km from Mount Ventoux


One of the most popular view on Gordes in Provence. Needless to say, that at night time we can find almost nobody there… BTW, you can find this view in one scene in the film “A Good Year” with Russell Crowe & Marion Cotillard.

travelers stories about Coast in Saint-Chamas, France

Coast in Saint-Chamas, France

  72 km from Mount Ventoux


I grew up in a very small town in south of France, and I lived there for 20 years, but there are still some places I don’t know, like this one. Even if it is so close from my home, I had never been there. There is always something new to discover, wherever you are. This small hut is for duck hunters. They sit and wait inside it all day long and hunt ducks and other species.

travelers stories about Glacial lake in Pont du Galetas - Gorges du Verdon, France

Glacial lake in Pont du Galetas - Gorges du Verdon, France

  88 km from Mount Ventoux


My brother and I drove hours out of our way to come see this place, and I’m glad we did. Having a hire van meant we could get to places that would be impossible to get to via public transport; this was one of those places. We hired a paddle boat for an hour and paddled down the river. It was unbelievably relaxing, if not slightly romantic. Next time I’ll take my girlfriend not my brother.

I took this picture in Marseille, south of France, during a corporate shooting session for a friend of mine which was starting his new activity. We wanted to have pctures that shows nature, health, good vibes and quiet… One of our spot was this beach, with white sand and this unreal color of sea. I saw those little stones on the sand and I suddenly imagined that tom thumb went there ! ;o) I simply pushed the button and here is the fresh result. Hope you enjoy.

The Porte d’Orient, or The Oriental Door) - represents the thousands of French-African Colonial soldiers who left from the shores of Marseille to fight in the the Orient during World War I.

On the last full day of a month long trip around Europe in 2015, we stopped in Les Calanques de Sugiton for some cliff jumping, on the way back to Marseilles to catch the train we stopped at the peak of one of the Calanques to take in the sunset. I spotted this village tucked away between two of the calanques.

We were making our way from Grenoble city up to the Fort de la Bastille. It’s a long series of steep, winding roads to get to the top and we welcomed a short break on hike up. I captured this moment of my friend Alex overlooking Grenoble and I think it came out beautifully.

Herd of sheeps and goats crossing the road in front of a car at the Col du Glandon in Savoie this autumn (France). I allowed myself a small modification of the traffic sign to give priority to the herd over the car, the mountain being the territory of wildlife and not humans. :-)
