Back on the 500 monks mountain
On Saturday (Halloween), a student of mine (Suzerraine) invited me to lunch with her family at her grandmothers house in the countryside. Besides feeling honored and happy to be invited to this lunch, I also felt extremely lucky to be able to take a glimpse into the life of people in the countryside. In the next series of pictures, you will see how the grandmother and a couple of families around her live day in, day out. It was beautiful, quiet and simple. I liked it very much.
