Malcesine, Lake Garda, 01/09/2024

3 hours of Peler.... My return to Prà de la fam, on Lake Garda, was definitely a happy one, with a typically summery windsurfing session, that turned out very satisfying.
Silvaplana, Engadin, 24 august 2024
Engadine is a place that makes me feel happy. The bright light and the beauty of the views, and the width of this valley enchant me. On Saturday, I returned there for a day of windsurfing, in the fresh mountain climate. Lake Silvaplana gave a session that was fun, at times.
Via Ferrata Piz Trovat (3146 m), Engadin
I also got this satisfaction: I did the Piz Trovat via ferrata, in Engadine, Switzerland, which lets you climb in front of the magnificent peaks of the Bernina group, and its imposing glaciers.
Croda Rossa di Sesto (Rotwand spitz), 2935 m!
There are days in life that are, undoubtedly, more beautiful and engaging than others .... A day spent climbing on the via ferrata that leads to the top of the Croda Rossa di Sesto (Rotwand spitz), in Sud Tyrol, is one of these.

Galicia, Spain, June 2024
A few days' trip to Galicia, to take advantage of a good forecast of wind from the North East for 4 consecutive days. I understood better how the windsurfing spots in this wonderful area of Spain work, and I discovered other fantastic places.
