During my reconnaissance trips, places, characters, causes and legends often call out to me. I then wanted to know more and write articles to deepen these themes.

As I write this, about twenty years have passed since I chose to live here in Patagonia. I know now that everything is in balance, moreover, Jean Raspail considered Patagonia as “a second homeland, the refuge homeland of those who believe in transcendence, in the need to elevate their thoughts”… Everything is said. It’s the last land inhabited by humans, …
Continue readingThis is a side of this country that I had to discover on the job and it was not always easy. Living and working here for many years, I had to adjust a lot of things over time. From the beginning, I took it all as a bit of a game, which allowed me to gain perspective on the somewhat …
Continue readingThe Patagonian steppe in front of the Torres del Paine massif The great south, there, at the very bottom of the American continent, a land that constitutes the Patagonian myth, I suggest you discover its panorama and its landscapes, as well as its people, its culture… in short, its singularity in today’s world, during a tailor-made stay in Argentina or …
Continue readingThe puma is present from the North to the South of the American continent, but it’s in the extreme South of Chile that the largest specimens are found. The Lord of Patagonia Both admired and feared, sometimes hated, the Puma is none other than the Lord of these places. I have been hoping to cross his path for a long …
Continue readingThe best is to visit Iguazu Falls with a guide to have all the necessary information about this exceptional place. Iguazu Falls are the most beautiful in the world, without a doubt. There are on average 5,000 visitors per day, but, despite this strong influence, it’s one of the major sites in South America, not to be missed under any …
Continue readingWhat does Antarctica look like? Michel Berger spoke of the “white paradise”, I think it’s a very beautiful image. Huge icebergs, of dimensions difficult to imagine, glaciers as far as the eye can see, suspended or at sea level, but also mountains… A lot of relief in fact! Besides, many will perhaps imagine that Antarctica is a flat territory, it …
Continue readingAntarctic penguin and its babies Antarctica is the windiest, coldest, driest, most barren and highest continent of all. It’s the very end, the southernmost land in the world. A continent in its own right (about one and a half times the size of Europe), a land that belongs to no one, no nation has sovereignty over these millions of square …
Continue readingThese are not necessarily “must-sees” things in the literal sense of the term, or great tourist classics, but rather moments that will leave you with very strong memories. The key is to interact with others and let yourself go. I can only encourage you to also master a little Spanish to be able to fully experience most of these experiences. …
Continue readingBefore booking a stay or a tour in Argentina and/or Chile, particularly in Patagonia, you’ll want to put all the chances on your side and know in advance what the weather will be like during your trip, and that’s quite normal! Which months should we choose? – What weather is expected? – When can we observe this animal or natural …
Continue readingThe llama, alpaca, guanaco and vicuna belong to the camelid family, they live in different habitats and have their own way of life. It is quite difficult to distinguish them when you are not initiated. I therefore wrote this article with the aim of letting you know a little more about these typical South American animals, which were already present …
Continue readingI’ll try to give my point of view on a question that travelers ask me very often: is it really worth going to Ushuaia? When planning a trip to Argentina (as well as Chile), Ushuaia is of course a place that awakens our attention and our imagination. Nicolas Hulot (among others) has a lot to do with it through his …
Continue readingI would like to point out first of all that if my words sometimes seem a little mocking, or even a little arrogant, I became “Argentinized” over time, and I love these people enormously, even if they often make me laugh! (You’ll see why later). I really like Argentina and the Argentines, I often say that the real wealth of …
