Press review about our travel of 2009

Introduction

Usually, on this website, I try to write the most polite, but the most honest possible way. So let's be honest: our communication, before and during our trips has to be improved, so the press coverage wasn't that good.

We would need a kind of impresario, somebody who could deal with the press and update the website while we are traveling, because it's almost impossible to correctly communicate while traveling.

Let's remember that Julian who came with me in the United States was a professional cameraman (check the page Who are we?) He is currently working on the documentary we would like to make.

Press review about our travel of 2008

You will find below some links that will lead you to articles that have been published about us. This list is not necessary complete.  Usually, we weren't aware that people were writing about us. Some articles may be inexacts and contain errors. The truth is out there (Scully and Mulder, please have a sip), on the page Pyrenees 2008 for example.

I'm sorry, many articles are only available in French...
