On the wings of wind

Mong La is just on the Chinese border. As with many borders with Burma, you can expect to see the dirty side of things. Here, in Asia, many border towns are no more than a pretext to build a concentration of casinos and prostitution bars for the neighboors...

So... the main point of the trip was "spirituality", as Angeli said. Yes but... I had already visited many temples last time and I was feeling much more like discovering Burma than visiting the temples a second time. So, curiously enough, I saw only 3...

Some shots I did in the streets, from far away or close-by, with or without their autorisation. Asking always spoil the atmosphere of a pic and I always wonder if it's ok or not for me to take the pic but... If you don't know, it'd not going to hurt you...

Mong La market - next to the Chinese border Here, the market is set under a wide rook, people settling in long rows, in the middle of odds and sods, of vegetables and platic pans, rice baskets and shampoos, yes, here, just behind the water guns... But...

Our short trip was from Friday 4th to Monday 7th. Like last time, I found it too shirt. But the atmosphere was totally different. In January, the 25 monks in "school trip", especially the 6 or 7 I was always hanging around with, plus the constant presence...

Some pictures "stolen" in the streets to show you my KL The Petronas Towers (also called the Twin Towers, but i always found it weird) And every night, Im like "Wooooaah..." even if it the 25th time i've seen them. Shining, huge, they almost look made...

For those who didn't know, Kuala Lumpur hosted its 10th Formula 1 Grand Prix on March 23rd. It was for this very reason that I went to Malaysia. Me, a girl crazy about cars ? Not at all ^^ But it happens that my uncle works for the Renault F1 team, as...

Once more, I have to thanks CS (which are not the letters for Counter Strike...) for having made me able to meet awesome people during my trip. On Thursday, one "tete d'ours" (Azlan) came to KL and introduced me to his... girlfriend ? Girlfriend... ??...
