A trip to Clermont Ferrand, Part One.

May 10, 2023,15:40 PM
 

Alfihar kindly offered me to stay at his home, while I had to plead in this part of France. So, he played the guide for me and made me rediscover some places in Auvergne. 


Here is a first series of photos. 

A lake...



With its Castle. 



Scotland? No!  wink



A superb house lost in the woods. 









What a scenery!




More to come... 

Best,

Nicolas

I spent there all the winters of my childhood, from walking on volcanos to learning nordic ski, amazing memories! Plenty to love, and you had good company 😉 Best, E.
