Walk under the Rain
Weekend in Dushambe, Tajikistan. Between sleeping hours to catch up on, vodka as inter-bites, restaurants transformed into club and long relaxing walks under the rain. Quiet.
25 April 2014: Ismoil Somoni statue, Dushanbe, Tajikistan
Field Trip
First field trip to Badakhshan province, in the North East of Afghanistan. The region could be a paradise for tourists, nature lovers and trekkers (as it was the case 50 years ago), if it was not experiencing daily security incidents. One day... inch'allah.
16 April 2014: Butchers at Taloqan's market, Takhar province, Afghanistan
15 April 2014: Called Zarang, Tuk-tuk are frequently used in Afghanistan, as a taxi or to transport materials. Badakshan province, Afghanistan
In the Ghetto
Without me even noticing it, almost 4 months past since my arrival in Afghanistan. Last weekend, despite the insecurity and the threats, millions of Afghans went voting for a new president. Winter is over, my pullovers returned to my trunk (a place they should never have left) and the ice cream vendors started squatting Mazar's streets, filling them with annoying music, announcing their presence. A new routine in my life...
12 April 2014: Farewell dinner for the departure of some colleagues. Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan.
Alternative Path
A bit frustrated with the impossibility of taking proper pictures outside lately, I got a few ideas for a new project. I am now looking forward to working on it, over the next years. And because she was a source of inspiration, all my thoughts are going to Anja Niedringhaus' friends and family, after she was killed this morning in Afghanistan.
05 April 2014: Pierre-Yves, in front of "his" bouldering wall. Passionate about climbing, he built his own wall to practice during his mission in Afghanistan. Mazar-e-Sharif, Afghanistan
In Motion
In a few days, I am going to move to a new house. Few months ago, I realized that, in the past 5 years, I had never slept for more than 30 successive days in the same bed. It is not going to change soon... and I do not want it to.
01 March 2014: R&G wedding, Divonne-les-Bains, France
P.S: Albert, I promise that the next one is going to be in color, just for you ;-)
