JIUZHAIGOU 九寨溝 1






















Thank you for being there and sharing your kindest thoughts with me for the past year. Your every word warms me. From you, with your eyes, I peep into the other side of the world. You flourish me with this amazing interknotting coexistence. I wish you will be there and be my company for the year 2012.

We had a peaceful and tranquil Christmas at Jiuzhaigou 九寨溝. At the start of a new year, we are fine tuning the daily rhythm and wishing a more comfortable and confident pace.

It is always an absolute delight to see your new post. And what more to say about those images, they are breathtaking. I always dreamed to visit Jiuzhaigou one day. I have not seem so many places in China, what a pity. It is so nice to have you in 2011, thank you for sharing the beauty and love, and thank you for your friendship. May 2012 be the best year yet for you and all.

this is not the jiuzhaigou i imagine, because people always told me there're hoards of tourists! while it seems like there's only you and iza on your beautiful pics. :P

Dear Amy,
It's nice that there were not many people during this time. We could walk slowly, listen to the waters and enjoy the serenity of nature.
Dec-Feb is the off peak season. It's really cold and certain sessions of wooden walkways are closed. But we still spent two days hiking in the valley.
Nice, really nice :)

Dear Yanyan,
I also share the similar feeling. There are many wonderful places in China that i've never been to ... There are still places we can feel and experience the simple and authentic side of life, of nature.

Un endroit tranquille après la folie des fêtes de fin d'année.
Le bonheur, comme je te comprends.

China is like a jeweled treasure, thank you for sharing it with us. I have been north and south and there still a world of beauty I have not seen. Those images by the way are expectacular. You have outdone yourself again. I felt I could touch the coat and hat on the second photo.

Wishing you a beautiful 2012.

Oh my god! how splendourous! I feel just like Yanyan, always a delight to discover your post. There is always a moment of silent awe... these images are indeed breathtaking. Iza's precious smile shining over the turquoise waters, and the magical white trees...
Jiuzhaigou is one of the places in the world where I promissed myself to visit with Elsa during her childhood.
I'm delighted that this post is entitled "Jiuzhaigou 1", meaning that there's more coming...
Dear Alliot, your friendship is a precious present of life. Wish you love and happiness for 2012.

Dear Alliot, your pictures and Iza's smile absolutely brighten my heart in this dark January of Norway. I also must say that thank you and Iza for the year of 2011, that you had brought so much beauty, joy, peacefulness and love to us. A big thank you from the bottom of my heart. Wish for a wonderful 2012, and I wish we will be good companies to each other for the year 2012:)
