I'm driving to Montreux, passing by Zug, Luzern (in Luzern for the second picture I wanted to take, the camera that Tonina gave me just went out of order.), Interlaken, Chateau d'Oex and the 'Col des Mosses' (a nice and hard pass). I can appreciate the beauty of Switzerland doing a last small touristic tour. And especially I can appreciate its cleanness, except on the Bruennig Pass: I'm breathing during all the ascension the smell of the paint (they are remaking the white lines on the road) a very thin road which goes up very stiff. A good exercise for the continuation of my journey: the perfect conditions of driving don't really exist.

The wild side of Switzerland is missing a bit during my trip because it's especially hard to find wild places to camp on the itinerary I chose. The first night, I'm sleeping on the floor in a parking place with as only comfort my isothermic mattress... A dog is waking me up in the morning. The beginning of a new life, of a new way of life.

After a few days with my family in Montreux and (again) a nice party with my friends, I'm riding my 'horse' and I’m leaving Switzerland. Easier to find a wild place to camp on the way to the Simplon Pass. I'm suffering a few hours but when I reach the top, I'm really excited: In front of me, infinite horizon, the world with all his wonders! My fears, doubts or whatever are erased. Now I know I can reach everything. Of course, and fortunately, everything can happen but there are always solutions and everything is possible. This is also the philosophy I assimilate to my life and not only for my bicycle's journey. From now, the horizon is fully open and I already dream of exotism...
