Pyrene, Awaken Once More

This week­end we attend­ed the sec­ond edi­tion of L’Homme Sauvage fes­ti­val, in the French region of Occ­i­ta­nia. We nev­er thought it would be pos­si­ble, but this edi­tion was even bet­ter than the first one.

Our life and our path are sub­ject to that of oth­ers and to those things that we do not expect, to the Inevitable.… Con­tin­ue Reading →

On Sep­tem­ber 29th we start­ed a jour­ney to L’Homme Sauvage fes­ti­val, held in the small town of Aspet, in the French Pyre­nees. As we have men­tioned sev­er­al times, Occvl­ta is now estab­lished in the Cata­lan Pyre­nees, an area called Pal­lars Sobirà, so it was real­ly easy to get there, just need­ing to cross one moun­tain… Con­tin­ue Reading →
