About me, myself and I

Hi ! I'm a professional travel journalist and photographer travelling all over the world and writing (in french) for French and Belgian magazines, guide books, etc.

I'm taking lots of images for some microstocks like Geostory and Shutterstock, Getty, Global images, etc. I can say I'm a globe-trotter and sometimes a "blog-trotter".

So, welcome to you and please, enjoy this little and modest blog

ps: I'm not a professional blogger. May be one day.

Bienvenue ! Merci Thanks Спасибо ! Gracias .. ;-)

about this blog...

Maybe you noticed that this blog looks "amateur"... Of course, it is !
This blog is not a professional website, even if little by little some friends of mine ask me to do that. Maybe one day.
This blog is only for fun and pleasure, like a hobby! And without any advertising... Just for readers, collegues, touroperators, travel agents, friends and people visiting it, some lost in cyberspace.
The blog answers questions like "how is living this guy? What is he doing ? And where is he now? etc."
At the beginning, this blog was private and only given to people I knew. But afterall, why not open it to everybody who found it, because they were looking for something, or by chance, etc.
By the way, I have another website, GEOSTORY, for magazines, art directors, editors (have a look): www.geostory.com
This website is only for pro's and I don't tell anything about myself, of course.
So, if you want to know a little bit about my job and crazy life, don't hesitate to explore and to click on sections of this blog. You 'll find some articles online, nice pictures (pro) and 'amateur' videos...
Thank you!
