Hello Rio de Janeiro !!
Hope you are all doing well!!
I arrived after a long flight at 9.00 am in the International Rio de Janeiro - Galeao Airport.
I was a little tired after this flight, so I said to myself why not go to Copacabana Beach. What an amazing view!! I had an impression that I was the happiest man in the world ! I was indeed!
It was so beautiful and I lived a special, incredible moment ! It was good to revitalise yourself ! I drank a coco (4 to 5 R$) Yummy !
I left the beach at 11.50 am to have lunch in a traditional restaurant (at 12.26 pm) called " Angu do gomes " and I took a traditional meal " Angu". It was corn, piglet and seasonnings. A meal very special but delicious ! Good to try!
After this good moment, I visited a museum called " Museu do Amanha " if you want me to translateits name, it is " The Museum of Tomorrow '' (I arrived at 2.10 pm). This museum is stunning, I had never seen such a modern architectural museum ! Do you know it was one of the innovations for the Olympics Games ? I did not know ... :)
I love science exhibitions, and I saw Cosmos exhibition. In the Cosmic Portal, a 360° dome, I spent a unique visual journey through galaxies and deep into the subatomic world of elementary particles and into the centre of the sun. I witnessed the beginings of life !
Then I took the Bus at 3.24 pm to finally go to see " El Cristo Redentor ". If you want a piece of advice, you have one hour and a half transport and it costs approximatly 3 R$. Then I took the train (20 minutes of transport and it cost me 68 R$) to see the PANORAMA ! I could not believe it I was there !!!
They were lots of people, fortunatly I had taken my ticket on Internet; do the same I advise you:)
At last, after one hour and a half of an unforgettable moment, I took a Taxi to see the Christmas Tree ! Beautiful and Magic !
I spent a fantastic day and now I'm in the airport to have my flight at 9.30 pm !!
Tomorrow I will be in Mexico !!!
Good bye Rio, I miss you already !!

Is it a dream I am here ?
I remember my poster with this landscape hanging in my bedroom in France… This poster I used about dream all nights inspired me freedom.
I am talking about the famous Blue Montains in Australia.
Today, at …..o’clock, my dream became true.
At 09:05am, I arrived in Sydney and I had to walk quickly because my next plane was at 9 :50am from Sydney to Canberra. I finally arrived at the airport of Canberra at 10 :50 am. The jetlag was not so hard, there is just 3 hours more in Australia than in New Zealand.
As I was so excited to live my Australian adventure, I decided not to lose any time and to visit the Blue Montains, which was my final destination.
Then, as I planed it a long time ago, I hitchhiked from Canberra to Launceston and in Launceston I rented a campervan to go to the Blue Montains.
I only waited 5minutes to hitchhike because the place where I streched my thumb was a strategical point where a lot of cars drove by.
I got in the car and my watch indicated 11 :30am. An old woman was driving. At the beginning, the dialog was a little bit difficult because in Australia, they have a strong accent I had
never heard before.
Her name was Abigail and she was a sympathetic person. She advised me about different things I could discover in Australia and she offered me to sleep in her house if I did not have
plans for this night.
She droped me off in Launceston where I had rented my campervan on « aussie campervans » website.
I bought Australian food that seemed delicious and water for the day.
Then, I walked to the campervan station where I gave a guarantee to the guardian.
I drove my van.What a danger here ! I had forgotten that here like in England, Australian people drive on the left side of the road.
Finally, I arrived in Blue Montains 3hours later safe and sound, at 15 :00pm.
Here, I left my campervan and decided to discover the landscape of my dream.
Such a wonderful nature around here !! I felt free, happy and crazy ! I took some pictures because I wanted this experience never to die and to keep some memories, not only in my head, because I wanted to share it.
After 2 hours walk, I thought I was lost. I did not remember where I had left my campervan and where I began my walk. I tried geolocation thanks to my phone but there was no connexion here. I panicked because the night was coming … It was 7:30pm already… I tried then to find the way back and I finally reached my campervan…
What an adventure !
So exhausted I was… I tasted the Australian food that I had brought and it was so delicious !
Well... 9 :30am… I had to sleep well because tomorrow I would visit the capital.
Hi everyone ! J
Yesterday I made a crazy choice, I decided to go to Croatia. The man whom I talked to told me that if there is one country to visit it is this one !
I thought… Why not ? YOLO : You Only Live Once ! So I took the bus from Prague to Zagreb by night. My neighbour was Spanish ! He offered me to watch a movie with him, He made the choice for both of us given that he is a big fan of Daniel Craig. Then we watched the James Bond movie "Skyfall". During a while, I had an impression to be a secret agent ! Very nice ! But his snores put an end to my sleep !
You will never guess what happened this morning when I was waiting for my second bus to join The National Park of Plitvice, I met the Croat handball player : Ivano Balić ! He is the best player in Croatia.
Around 10 P.M I Arrived at The National Park of Plitvice Lakes the one that was added to the UNESCO heritage in 1979. Tell me I’m dreaming ! It was so AMAZING ! Colours, landscapes, cascades, fish,… The park extends over 296.85 square kilometres,.I just had a glimpse at the area but I will remember this image for the rest of my life. It was such a good idea to come here !
I had lunch in a restaurant the Cevapi (some advice of a friend) It looks like a sausage ! Very good !
Then I took a bus to reach the city of Zadar where I visited the sea organ, St Donat church, The Greeting to the Sun… This was very funny ! The lighting elements of the Greeting to the Sun installed in a circle produce a marvelous, exceptionally impressive show of light in the rhythm of the waves and the sounds of the Sea organs.

Tonight I will take the bus line number 8 to go to my hotel Delfin with its view on the sea. I will eat my diner and my breakfast there.
I really have to make a big night to recover from last night ! Tomorrow I will go to Italia !
Are you ready to continue and follow me ? ANDIAMO !
Good evening,
This day in Prague was really intense. I arrived this morning, and then I directly went to discover Prague Castle. By the way, I visited the capital on foot, went to Lennon Wall which is really beautiful, colourful and a nice place to relax. Then, I continued with this lovely atmosphere, I walked around in Parc Kampas where I had the opportunity to have a look at the sculpture made by the crazy David Cerni. But I really appreciate his mind and his arts. He's a real symbol of the Czech Republik.
Then, I just went to an exhibtion: Andy Warhol. The place of the exhibition was on the Old Town.
Tonight, I went to Charle's Bridge which is always wonderful and romantic at the night.
This year is really a special one for Czech people because they are celebrating 700 years of Charles IV. He made a lot for the country and especially about the Castle.
Tomorrow is a public holiday in the Czech Republic, this is the Freedom and Democracy Day. But I decide to continue my trip and have a new stop in Croatia.
See you tomorrow, good night!
