Photographer’s Note

Sapa is a mountain village located at the eastern extremity of the Himalayas, close to the border of China, in northwest Vietnam.

It's the perfect base to get access to the tribal villages, scattered around the whole province of Lao Cai... weather permitting.

For a week, heavy fog and intermittent rain kept me in my hotel room most of the time, until the last day when I have decided to go despite the rain to Ta Phin, a Red Dzao village.

I didn't regret my move, as I have met very warm and welcoming people and even if the weather wasn't perfect, the images I took are evocative of the climate that prevails in the surrounding at high altitude.
