In Bhutan: High, Higher, Highest Trip Ever!

The Ura valley festival

Our recent trip to Bhutan was going to be two-weeks long but got shortened unexpectedly (more on this post the wife vs. the mother). Still, in a week, we drove over 500km of mostly bumpy roads, hiked about 15hours of trails, crossed 3 overpasses at 4,000m altitude. It was amazing. Our jaws dropped at every change of scenery and at every temple on the way. This is a place well worth visiting with teenagers who will certainly appreciate the great outdoors and learning about the rich history of this small buddhist country.

New York City of Trees

New York City of trees

How refreshing to look at a mega city like New York thru its trees. That is the work of photographer / writer / former park employee Benjamin Swett with his new book New York City of Trees (available on Amazon here). It chronicles the lives of many New York’s oldest residents. “Little has been said about the important role of trees as storehouses of a city’s past”.

I find it moving because nature and New York City are not obvious best friends. Think of all those roots needing to dig so deep under the concrete. This book trains our eyes into looking at the city differently. Its observations are sometimes sad, as when B. Swett noticed his favourite tree replaced by a crane. No real surprises there unfortunately.

Green riding

A bamboo cruiser

There’s a trend going on about bicycles made of bamboo. It’s not a new invention, but they’re getting quite a bit of press lately and I find the concept so cool. I started paying attention after I traveled in India and noticed those jaw-dropping scaffoldings made of bamboo, going up so high. Even in super-modern Singapore, they use bamboo scaffolding sometimes.

I just got an eye crush on the Objets Nomades by Louis Vuitton. The capsule collection was unveiled at Miami Design week last December and is currently on display at the Milan LV store if you pass by. 16 beautiful pieces around the theme of portable travel accessories by a different designer using LV’s leather. For the tres chic globe trotters inside all of us.

This is the handbag that transforms into stools, by Patricia Urquiola. Genius!
