Besides being at home with my family, being in Nature is where I feel most comfortable. Working in a busy town and in a tough business, I need to get back to balance.
Sometimes I need to be alone. Then I can freely sing, laugh or cry whenever I want. Sometimes having a friend beside me can intensify my experience.
Being in an immense space in nature is a great opportunity for me to be thankful for what Nature has given. I have the impression that Nature opens its doors, inviting us to capture this moment. I always feel thankful. But it also reminds me that mankind has gone too far and I feel really sorry. It reminds me to take care of the environment.
Time in Nature brings me back into balance. It frees my head. It gives energy. It provokes ideas. It solves problems. It lifts my mood.
Combined with sports and photography it is also fun.
For me it is essential.
