Photographer’s Note

Last tuesday, I was eating a pizza in a restaurant in Grado, when this particular character got into the restaurant shouting: "Bonjour! Parlez vous francais?"

We started to talk in a mix of language(Italian English and French) and he told me that he is Joel Buton, a French man that started to walk around the world in 1999 from Paris, and he visited Ireland,U.K., Belgium,Netherlands,Denmark,Sweden,Norway,Finland, Germany,Czech Republic,Slovakia, Croatia, Baltic Republics and other countries of eastern Europe.

This long travel is to complain against the anti-man mines and he is collecting signatures for this reason.

He wants to finish his intinerary in 2009 in France. Now he is going to visit Portugal and Spain. At the end, he wants to bring the signatures collected in Washington to George W.Bush
