October 2024

October is a harvest of sunlight. The world is drenched in cinnamon, the leaves have hues of maple syrup and my heart full of envy illuminates the lines of this landscape notebook like a Jack’O Lantern pumpkin.

September 2024

I have two wishes for September, the first being to evoke the feeling of putting on a pair of long shorts again and riding through the woods towards a cup of cappuccino and a slice of cake.

August 2024

August (at least, in my world) embodies something infinitely great. It's the month when you're content with the most august of things: tiredness, how far you've come, merit or a moment of happiness you wouldn't want to forget despite its apparent triviality.

July 2024

Is July still the month of postcards? You'd have to be in a deep dive for July not to be synonymous with great discoveries. In the mountains, on the radio or in a museum, in the workshop, by the seaside or in the silent realm of a river...

June 2024

This is the sixth article in the "Journal de Paysages" (‘The Landscape Diary’) series launched with the Berthoud cycles team. Half a year has already gone by, marked by this half-dozen articles.

March 2024

March. Third month of the year. But more importantly, spring equinox. Perfect timing indeed to hang out at the Salon de l'Agriculture (French Farmers’ Fair): such a marvellous dictionary of terroirs, protected designations, and astonishing competitions of our rural world’s weaknesses and strengths.

February 2024

At the Manufacture, February is a month of paradox - it's the wintertime, surprisingly long and compacted into these short, fast-moving days. Between two cold snaps, we find ourselves riding along windy roads, flooded like rice paddies...

January 2024

On an autumn day, a conversation gives rise to an idea. The year 2024 begining on a Monday, why not starting to evoke what's at the origin of this taste? It should be materialized, told, we should write about what's the genesis of everything.
