London - City Video Guide
London, the capital of the UK, has been an important financial, educational and cultural center for centuries.
This world city is filled with iconic symbols. Tower Bridge is a striking reminder of London's rapid expansion during the industrial revolution. To the west of this is the country's seat of power, the Palace of Westminster. Opposite it stands Westminster Abbey. Perhaps the most famous of all London's churches is St. Paul's Cathedral.
Buckingham Palace, located on the Mall, near Trafalgar Square, is the official residence of Queen Elizabeth II. Another legacy of England's monarchy are its Royal Parks, of which there are eight. Hyde Park and Green Park provide hectares of greenery in London's center.
Culture and entertainment is everywhere in London; from the Royal Albert Hall to the British Museum to the West End. One of the best ways to see London as a whole is from the London Eye.
Trendy Notting Hill and Camden Town are two favorite districts not far from central London.

ISLANDE DE GLACE et de FEU
Ce diaporama est composé de photos prises en 2012, lors d'un voyage en Islande, je suis partie en avion avec un vol low cost, et j'ai parcouru ce pays merveilleux avec mon sac à dos, en utilisant les bus qui le sillonnent j'y est retrouvé mes amis. Tous ces paysages sont gravés dans ma mémoire, que démotions devant la puissance, la beauté et la pureté des éléments. La distance qui nous sépare du monde subtil semble ici s'effacer. La vie est partout, dans le cœur de ses volcans, recouverts de leurs glaciers pour calmer le feu qui les anime, dans ces cascades majestueuses qui charrient dans un grondement d'une puissance inouïe l'eau de la fonte des glaces, dans les fumerolles, dans ces geysers qui explosent en larmes brûlantes, et cette odeur de soufre qui vous envahit... La nature y est en perpétuelle création. Je tenais à remercier de tout cœur Est motorcycles qui a dynamisé ce voyage.
