I had heard that Berlin is a forerunner in terms of sustainable development, on its way to become an exemplary green European capital by 2020. Livestock, cattle and pigs are one of the first greenhouse gas producers, consuming tons of grain and water.

Le pèlerinage de Saint Jacques de Compostelle, à quoi s'attendre?

Quand ma mère m’a dit qu’elle voulait faire le chemin de Saint Jacques de Compostelle, je me suis tout de suite demandée si je pourrais la rejoindre.

Perfect time to have the pyramids for yourself. After a ride in the local bus, we reached this amazing place. Probably one of the most beautiful pyramids we've seen in Mexico.
