Hiking from Derborence to Gryon
Hiking from Derborence to Gryon
Few places in Switzerland get immortalized in Monumental literary works; such is the case of Derborence, with a novel of the same name from Charles Ferdinand Ramuz. Few locations in Switzerland get set amidst a Natural Park; with novels such as “Terror on the Mountains” Derborence’s remoteness and Wilderness is an apt setting for Ramuz. If the Author uses Fear or Terror to describe the…

This hike can start uphill from Mayens d’Arbaz towards Barrage du Zeuzier, or you can start from the other way around. We started from Barrage de Zeuzier, and that is where most of my pictures were taken as there the Teuzier barrage is very scenic.

A tour of Batanes, Philippines
A tour of Batanes, Just a bit South of the Northern confines of the Philippines lies the island of Batanes. Its isolation commands curiosity among Filipinos and other people across the World.

A hundred miles from Luzon, another hundred from Taiwan, facing the harsh currents, high waves and heavy winds of the Pacific Ocean together with the West Philippine Sea, the island is remote.

Namibia and the wonders of visiting deserts
Namibia and the wonders of visiting deserts
After flying by the Kalahari Desert, North-West, towards Windhoek, Namibia, I could not help noticing a dry river bed weaving a curved path across the expanse of vast barren lands. Shrubs mark the sinuous curve and, so I reckoned there is water beneath the ground, which is why I thought that the destination is close. The city of Windhoek lies East of the Namib desert in the Central Plateau of…

Circular Hike: Salève: Ascent with “The Grand Gorge” trail and descent on “Pas de l’Échelle” trail
From almost all vantage points of the City of Geneva, the cliff of Mount Salève is an un-mistakable fixture, in the South. On a bright sunny day, a visit to Geneva should include a visit to France, more precisely the top of Salève, let alone through the cable car that breezes visitors to the top in less than 10 minutes, even better a circular hike from the Swiss border!

Arriving at Svalbard
I usually bring a flashlight on camping trips, but then again where I am going the Sun never really sets on Summer; so no flashlight this time. On average temperature goes by 7 degree Celsius but the weather can change rapidly… so much so that I came I came prepared with Winter cloths on this trip. Just a while ago when I arrived at Oslo, I made the mistake of thinking that my Oslo-Longyearbyen…
