Look how much exoticism in this image. It is an alley in Varanasi, India. Exactly 20 years ago this picture was taken.

India is an intense country. 
It is not for everyone (there I met a woman who did not dare to leave the hotel).

There is a lot of traffic, a lot of people, intense smells, there are cows loose in the street, sometimes it is dirty and other times it is very dirty... 

In short... an intense country.

In 2026 I return to India. 
20 years after my first trip.
I don't know how much it will have changed but I'll be telling you about it and drawing it.

Intense blue sky, lots of green and the sun creating a delightful play of light and shadow.

Yesterday I was at the Albarda Garden in Pedreguer and I brought back this drawing and a good cold... 

It was worth it.

I recently discovered one thing: there are activities that, no matter how long they last, recharge your batteries. 

They don't need to last 5 hours. Not even an hour. Sometimes a few minutes will do.

For example: 

This is Sauraha, On the left hand side there were several small hotels and guesthouses, on the right hand side was the beginning of the park. On the left hand side there were several small hotels and guesthouses, on the right hand side the park began.

In case you go someday, I'll tell you how was my experience in the national park (it was 2016):

• I hired two guides to visit the park on foot. 
• The route began by boarding a small wooden boat and crossing a crocodile-infested river.
• It continued with a wild elephant chasing us and forcing us to get out of the boat and run away from him.
• After throwing off the elephant and returning to the boat, we ended up in the forest listening to a tiger attacking some deer and analyzing its markings on the trees.
• Meanwhile, the guides were telling me stories of people who had ended up in the hospital due to attacks by the labiated bear.
• Perhaps most disturbing was the fact that the guides only had one stick to defend themselves.

Chitwan National Park, Nepal
Highly recommended.

PS: Here is my book NEPAL!

Ay, hay, hai... 

I'm getting a taste for postcards... This one above is of two colorful houses in Denia. While I was making the drawing I met the owner of the yellow house.

Other: Today I have been checking the website because there have been a few failed orders for subscriptions. It seems that now it will go better, in any case if you have problems you tell me.

I don't know what it is about ports but I LOVE them and I think I'm not the only one. Maybe it's because of the noises you hear, maybe it's the light, the boats... I don't know... They transmit calm. 

On Friday I went to the port of Denia and I could not resist to make a drawing for the collection. Postcards of the World. 

This collection was created for two reasons:

- They are very quick to make and very enjoyable. So I can give them away to Premium Subscribers. Which I LOVE!

- In January I'm going to India for two weeks and I wanted to prepare the website for all the drawings I'll do when I'm there.

If you like the picture above (and you are a Premium subscriber).
I give it to you here >

Greetings - PEACE and Love‍.
