My name is Gilles, and I am a French Traveller and Photographer who has been discovering the world for over 20 years. These journeys – some short, others longer like two „Trips Around the World” in 2007 and in 2015, took me to more than 70 countries on all continents except Antarctica.
I sometimes use roads well traveled to discover world famous sights, but most of the time I try to choose more “Off The Beaten Track” experiences, though travel styles and destination types have widely changed through times, probably somewhat linked with my personal situation…
I have never been a budget backpacker travelling the toughest and cheapest possible way, but I am an experienced rucksack traveler who appreciates a minimum level of comfort, willing to make the most of each Travel experience. Yes, you may call me a “Flashpacker”…
