One of my greatest moments in the wild nature… 
« On the 16th of October, I wake up at 6:30 am in my tent. At 7:15, I can see the first light. I hide behind a rock to try and find again the 2 snow leopards I saw in the evening, in the distance. Strong emotion: in my binoculars, I can see them both, sitting a few hundreds of meters away from me, watching me… then, they quickly ignore me to focus on a group of blue sheep below. I spend the whole day watching them hunting… »
Now I’m tired, thinner after 3 weeks on the field, but so happy.
