Dear readers,
I'll be out of station for few days but I already scheduled some posts not to starve you.
I hope I'll be able to shoot some acceptable pictures from Nepal to give you the motivation to go and visit this place.
I'll be back in 10 days !

Markha valley

After one week of ride, I came back to Delhi to welcome my sister (with her husband and 2 children). And we all came back to Ladakh for a 5-days treck in Markha valley. Landscapes were so beautiful that I shot and shot and shot.... 


But I would like to inspire the emotions we've got with local villagers and kids all along the valley
