8 个月Love it, Marc. A country that is so diverse in topography as well as in gastronomy. My family and I were amazed last summer by the number of insect species - countless- when you can barely see one dragonfly in our countryside here in France. A reminiscence of what was and can be again if we let them live their insect life.
