The Casamanya Peak seen from the Ordino Pass in Andorra. Probably not the most beautiful picture, but for some reason, I really like it, probably because it feels a little abstract, as if it was just four colors laid more or less randomly on a canvas.

You can find more details about Sant Esteve Church on Andorra‘s official site. However, I can tell you that it dates from the 12th Century although it has been thoroughly renovated in the 20th. It is located in the heart of Andorra-la-Vella, near a bunch of important building […]
