After having spent 3 months in Cumbuco and 3 weeks in Ilha do Guajiru (Brazil), I am now in Europe, in the south of France close to Nice where I am spending xmas and new year with some of my family.

The trip was long with 4 different long flights from Brazil to France and a very difficult negotiation with Easyjet, our last flight from Paris to Nice. The girl at the counter made us check in our laptops, we were not allowed to bring it as hand luggage because of the camera equipment I already had as a bag pack. First time it happened to me, and the woman was speaking bad and shouting at us and didn't want to hear anything. Luckily I could manage to hide my laptop in the bag ... that was a very bad flight.
First impression arriving in Europe: It's cold ... I have almost never been in Europe in the winter and it is a big change for me ! One thing for sure is that I'm not gonna kite here .... hahaha

By chance I am on the cover of the new American magazine The kiteboarder, it is a kiteloop picture taken in cumbuco in the Cauipe lagune in Brazil during the last season.
I will be staying in France for the next 2 to 3 weeks to edit my next video and find out where we will be going for our next trips !
By the way, if you are in France tomorrow, you mustn't miss the French TV show Ushaia at 20h50 on the first channel TF1 the 29th of December, Jérémie Eloy,www.jeremieeloy.com, professional french kiteboarder will be part of the show at the very beginning with beautiful images from the Caribbean.
