We are neither leaving Vancouver yet nor travelling to Norway in very near future. Still, regarding travellin’ shoes, I’ll post a song made by Watcha Clan with an identical title as title in this post Besides that, I’ll post a picture and a link to gallery too from our trip on Sunday to Pemberton area. We  climbed Mt.  Matier. Keith’s Hut near Cerise Creek was our base camp, and we sumitted on Monday. I had a serious issue with my stomach, but everything went great. In case you want to see some pictures from this trip, you have to click here. On our way up to Mt. Matier, I fell in love with a tremendous peak of majestic perfection, namely Joffre Peak.

Nowdays everybody makes and posts their own youtube’s video.  I must say that I’ve been even watching some great short adventure movies made by outdoors people for their private use and libraries. Anyways, some days ago I  watched short clip made by filmmaker Michael Brown telling and giving advices about how to film your own adventure and take your videos to the next level. Michael Brown is an Everest filmmaker and Emmy-award winner. Brown’s best-known film is Farther than the eye can see about blind climber Erik Weihenmayer’s Everest summit in 2001. I already wrote about Erik Werhenmayer here.

PS: They made a Hollywood movie as well: Touch the top of the world

I knew that Europe had great natural wonders, and I was really glad to find this page with great pictures to prove it.

Wild Wonders of Europe wants to show that Europe really is not about just highways and cities. But today, many seem to know more about nature in Africa or in America, than in Europe, because that is what’s on TV. The European natural wonders are still very little known to the World. We want to change that.
