Diving in the Red Sea - Golden Triangle

Diving in the Red Sea was an exceptional experience the first time, so I decided to go again, on a different trip, during my off month in-between jobs.

Needless to say, it was another exceptional experience.

Romania 2018


So I went to the airport one train earlier than scheduled. You never know, quite a few have been cancelled in the last few weeks. It was running late a few minutes, as was the airport connection in Geneva. So far, so good.

Diving in the Read Sea

It was my first time in Egypt, my first dive in the Red Sea and my first live-aboard diving cruise. I went there in June 2017.

The luxury of the boat struck me from the first moment when I set foot on it.
Seeing the boats next to it, with their small kit-up spaces for the divers, the impression of having made a good choice only grew.

Biscuits Factory 2016


C'est avec engouement et empressement que je me suis dirigé, le premier vendredi du mois de décembre, chez Nicole et Thomas. C'est chez eux, que comme à l'accoutumée, allait se passer un week-end de folie pâtissière.

A wedding (or two) in India

Taj Mahal

What I kept repeating to local people, is that I was quite astonished that India was not at all like I expected it to be. And people told me that they knew the world had a bad image of India. After seeing movies like Slumdog Millionaire and hearing a lot about the overwhelming poverty in India, I arrived there positively surprised.

En tout, une quinzaine de personnes participent de près ou de loin à la production massive. Plus de sept mille (7'000) biscuits en dix-sept (17) sortes sont préparés en deux jours de travail intense.
