Three Ways of Travelling

ROAD TRIP — France

Garry Winogrand, for example, […] found that within the rectangle of this viewfinder, he could freeze vignettes of life as he saw it or, rather, as his camera saw it. It might sound like Cartier-Bresson, but in truth, his aims were very different: 
I photograph to find out what the world looks like in a photograph.”

(in) Gerry Badger. (1996). «The Genius of Photography» — On the road. London: BBC, p.140

⋯⋯⋯

There’s so much out there waiting to be discovered.
Whether it’s new places, ideas, or experiences, the possibilities are
endless.
What do we plan to explore in these episodes?

In France, there are countless places to visit, making it impossible to list them all in just a few lines. However, some must-see locations include the Dunes of Pilat, the Bay of Saint-Michel, and the region of Cherrueix in Brittany. Normandy is also significant, with its historic landing sites and memorials that remind us of the tragic events of the past, especially in places like Oradour-sur-Glane (in Nouvelle-Aquitaine), where the impact of history still resonates.
Additionally, the country is home to some of the most beautiful pilgrimage churches, such as the Church of Autun and Saint-Foy-de-Conque, which are worth mentioning.
We'll discover countless incredible places in this magnificent country, brimming with rich history and stunning landscapes to explore.
We'll highlight them throughout our journey through France.
