The song that starts with "There is a village far away" is a sound from our childhood. It contains longing lines. Many of us long for our villages, where we were born and had to move away for socio-economic reasons. We want to go to our villages not to escape from life, but to avoid losing our roots in life.
Plateaus are one of the indispensable elements of village life. With the arrival of spring, plateau life begins. Being closer to the sun, forest, water and stars means feeling more what nature has to offer.
Every day starts at the same time, the journey of the sheep herd for the struggle for nutrition. Everywhere they pass, the smell of natural thyme surrounds the plateau covered by the clouds coming from the valley. The herd disappear in these clouds with the notes of the shepherd's pipe.
We would like to bring closer our villages and plateaus, where our roots are located, with photographs.
