Thanks, Thomas. Yes, to an outsider the region seems soaked in religion. And I can see why – even the weather seemed biblical. My next post will be on a little church I found there – do let me know what you think.

Beaing a native of brittanny, I would like to thank you for capturing very well the spirit of this region. Your pictures transported me back home, with the small details which make this place special. The Hortensia flowers, the granite rock, the details you have captured without falling in the postcard. Thanks !
It makes me realize that for someone coming from outside the religion would seem to be everywhere.

Le Conquet… Wonder why a poet who definitely isn’t a seaman could have chosen this town, so imprinted by the coldest streams of the Atlantic? A personal challenge or the wrong choice? Or did the poet/explorer transfigurate into a deep black cat who just goes everywhere because she really has to? The new section in the website reflects so much, but most of all lack of color and diffused frustration from a continent which isn’t what it should have been…
The poet reads and understands Dante, and soon he must be given to write his own Divine Comedy.Somebody give him a pen, somebody give him a platform. It’s time. No time to waste.
