Travel diary from Burma  
Travel diary from Burma
The bustling docks of Yangon's port, the impassive smile of the giant golden Buddhas, the funny mini-tractors on the potholed roads, the subtle exchanged winks in the markets, the skilful patience of the Bagan's master varnishers, the gardens on the water of Inle Lake: Burma, now known as Myanmar, leads us at its peaceful pace, far from the gaze of the modern world. Freeze frame in another time, in quiet privacy...
     
Skiing experience in Krasaya Polyana  
Skiing experience in Krasaya Polyana
Although it is about to become a future star thanks to its neighbouring resort, Sochi, having been chosen for the Olympics, Krasaya Polyana remains a small unknown resort for the time being, with equipment that reminds us of the soviet era. However, what this resort lacks in modern chairlifts, it makes up in snow. In fact, Krasnaya gets a gold medal for “snow”. Here, more than anywhere else, quantity and quality go together. Every year there are metres and metres of powder, snow made humid by the neighbouring Black sea which makes it very stable. Enough to please any freerider lacking “white gold” back at home without having to empty their bank account.
     
Expedition Chamje Khola  
Expedition Chamje Khola
Coincé entre le Manaslu et le Massif des Annapurna, au Népal, Chamjé Khola est un canyon à l’échelle himalayenne situé dans la vallée de la Maryangdhi. Après deux ans de préparation logistique, technique et physique, une équipe franco-népalaise de onze aventuriers, six porteurs et deux secouristes sont arrivés en trois semaines à bout de ce qui est désormais le canyon le plus difficile au monde. Deux jours de marche d’approche avec un col à presque 4300m d’altitude à passer en technique alpine, trois nuits en bivouac dans le canyon, une eau à 6°, un encaissement de 2000m, des cascades de plus de 150m, de très longues portions de nage et un engagement extrême. Un monstre...
     
Snowkiting trip in Lebanon  
Snowkiting trip in Lebanon
Narrow strip of land bordered by the Mediterranean Sea, Lebanon is the smallest country of the Middle East. Border with Syria and Israel, the mountain occupies the greater part of the territory with a peak at over 3000 m. Sun and powder snow offer to run no fewer than six winter sport resorts. A very scenic and exotic environment to practice snowkiting while smoking a hookah!
