Hot Summer Trekk

The sunny weather is incredibly hot these days in the mountains. Dehidration and sun overheating made me so sick I was stuck in my bed a whole day! But then I bought one of those hats Yankees use when they are outside I always made jokes of before, and "god bless the yankees!" I could at least make it the last day.

Peace, peace and more peace! Walking in the snow at the end...

The season is at its end for this time.

I am grateful and peaceful.

Nature is shining in the sun of the spring and I decide to shift skis with my hiking boots and go walking my last days in the mountain for this time. My heart is filled with love and a sensation of belonging, even if I know I probably never can install myself and my family in this enchanted place, Monterosa.

I want to be alone here for this moment, to walk in the woods and in the perfect silence of the snowy valleys. I know I am not alone, I feel the presence of eyes, the eyes of the animals waking up after this heavy winter: mountain goats, marmots, birds.

The Milky Way and The Ladies

Just for a change I was searching the stars in Sestriere and Sauze d'Oulx with some of my most beloved guests. The ski area that hosted the winter OS 2006 lies west of Torino and is called the Milky Way. 400km of pists and 7 villages chained by the lifts between Sauze in Italy and Mongenevre in France.

The sacred Swedish Sportlov and more guests

It is sacred, yes, people come to the Alps from the North and you will barely hear any other language in the villages than Swedish these weeks.

Life beyond computers and more guests of honour.

When I am sitting on a root after a walk in the sun and the snow, slowly travelling in the Alps, this windy day which forced all to stay away from the slopes, I just cannot imagine to be able to sit in front of my computer again. Our communication of today is wired, we have all a feeling that it is fundamental for life's continuity to be connected 24x24, no one should miss an opportunity to reach all the others where ever they possibly are, or to miss an information from all the most remote corners of this crazy ciber world.
