Nurture

I have been very quiet lately. I can’t keep up it seems.

A long week end in Bali was the most nurturing experience. And the most needed.

My favourite thing was to see everywhere their daily rituals, actually every morning and evening. Little holders, made of palm leaves waived together, of offerings are simply everywhere. This Balinese Hinduism ritual, which get created in the early morning hours and replaced for the evening is to appease the Gods. You’ll find them everywhere, some intact, some rolled over. No offence here!

The rice fields have been a source of fascination. Totally new to my psyche! I couldn’t get enough of them.

And some inspired drawing and journaling. Bliss.

Can’t wait to return!

Shining gem

During my visit to my family in my homeland, despite not so good weather, we managed to do a few good hikes…We would check the weather forecast on the evening and organize our walk for the following day.

This is Emosson Dam, on the border of France. This is quite re-known for its dinosaurs marks or traces, which are really impressive (for the non-dinosaur-marks-specialist that I am!). The other gem is the omnipresence of the magnificent mountains and lakes…

We hiked for a bit, had a break and then continued, leaving my parents behind. I tell you, we suffered. The mountain girl that I used to be has walked too many flat lands… and it is already something to go up and up and up, as we were motivated by the view from the top. But then, we had to go down…..oh my….
