Trekking vidéo au Népal : Vallée de l'Anapurna
Article posté par Romain le Lundi 14 décembre 2009, à 14:03 Après ces quelques jours passés au coeur de Kathmandu , nous avions du pain sur la planche. Car faire un trekking au Népal, c’est un peu comme ramener du nougat si vous êtes de passage à Montélimar (certes, la comparaison est un peu disproportionnée …), cela fait parti du domaine de l’ incontournable . On nous avait prévenu que cela serait physique, et cela tombait bien, nous avions ces kilos superflus accumulés en Inde à bruler (je perdrai pour ma part près de 7 kilos en une semaine)… Arrivés très tôt le matin à Pokhara au terme d’une nuit épique dans le bus (parcourir 200 kilomètres au Népal, ça prend du temps…), nous avions dans un premier temps choisi d’aller se poser dans un vrai lit quelques heures histoire de tenir le choc, et donc de commencer ce trek plus ou moins en forme… Pokhara , 3ème ville du Népal en terme de population, se trouve en bordure du lac Phewa à près de 1000 m d’altitude .

Les 9 règles d’or du voyage, selon Paulo Coelho
L’écrivain Paulo Coelho, qui se décrit comme un pèlerin dans l’âme, vient de publier sur son blogue les 9 principaux trucs qu’il préconise pour bien voyager . En voici un aperçu (traduction libre). Désert blanc, Égypte - Gary Lawrence 1-Évitez les musées: si vous êtes dans une ville, n’est-il pas plus intéressant de vous attarder au présent plutôt qu’au passé? Certes, les musées ont leur utilité, mais ils nécessitent temps et objectivité – vous devez savoir à quoi vous y attendre, sinon vous en sortirez avec l’impression d’avoir vu quelque chose d’essentiel, sans vous rappeler ce que c’était. 2-Traînez dans les bars populaires: c’est là qu’une ville se révèle, là où se retrouve le commun des mortels, là où on peut tâter le pouls d’une population.Ancient Turkish Cave Towns
