The story
Pokhara, Nepal, base camp at the foot of the majestic Himalaya…Preparing for one of the most beautiful circuits in the world, passing through magical places before engaging in an ascension towards the august Annapurna…
More than a simple voyage, a veritable inner quest, in search of the mysteries of life, of serenity, of absolute happiness on the Summits of Gods…Hiking for days through sceneries unique in the world, living unforgettable moments, crossings mythical passes at dazing altitudes, experiencing an ever stronger desire to physically and mentally surpass ourselves, all, in the final goal of bowing before the beauty and the sumptuousness of this veritable sanctuary…
After one last challenging hike on endless stone steps and under a dense and cold rain, nothing better than an evening charged in emotion and extraordinary encounters, in an ambiance straight out from Twin Peaks… An unforgettable moment, incomparable, forever immortalized in our minds and in time…
It is still dark outside, but the dawn has reserved for us a wonderful surprise, unveiling the miracle that took place overnight: everything has been painted in immaculate white, the spectacle is surreal! And, suddenly, as by magic, the mountaintops light up one after another all around us…
Being there, in the middle of the immense Himalayan chain, at several days of walk, far from the eternal agitation of our everyday life, is an extraordinary moment…
We advance in this pure white paradise, warmed up by the sun that shines with all its force now, transforming everything in a shining diamonds sea, all our senses saturated of so much beauty…
We rest a long time in this peaceful and magical sanctuary, in this paradise traversing the centuries, offering its calm and beauty to so many humans and cultures that climbed this “Stairway to Heaven” before us and to those that will follow…It’s a sublime moment, feeling so close to the sky and simply realizing that everything is possible now, that there isn’t any limit that cannot be surpassed.
