    Bora Bora, the Pearl of the Pacific

    Bora Bora...a name which evokes a place that is already close to being considered as "paradise". I actually had the chance to go there for a week; sailing in one of the world's most beautiful lagoons, enjoying the marvelous views, and of course, taking lots of pictures.

    The Underwater Halloween Pumpkin carving

    During Halloween time, we're used to buy a nice pumpkin and have fun by carving it and create strange, funny or very frightening faces. Often we make this in our kitchen or anywhere else, but did you ever try to do this by diving 6 meter deep? I'd like to share with you a very funny and unique halloween experience I had the chance to live...

    Moorea Island, Is this Paradise?

    Exploring the many islands of French Polynesia, I discovered again a place that you could easily call a paradise... It's the "sister island" from Tahiti, just a few miles in front of Papeete and is called Moorea.

    The Sea Swimming Pool of Uturoa

    Going to the swimming pool is always cool, but I don't like it when the place is closed and smelling strong chemicals... open air pools are much better, but the chemicals in the water are still there... and what about an open air swimming pool that is open on the beautiful waters of a logoon? That's what I want to show you now, the open air sea-pool of Uturoa!
