In June 2022, we had a hiking and leaf peeping trip through beautiful Basque Country in Spain. Trying to find the best surf spots in the region, for just 10 days we brought our surfboards, cameras and some gear to capture some moments of this fun trip.
Physical anthropologists think that modern Basques and ancient Cro-Magnon men share many characteristics and physical traits. The genetic and ethnic-cultural constitution of the Basques, the remote origin of their language that seems to stem directly from the ancestral memory of the earth and possibly from words, sparks of life fallen from the gods of heaven, allow us to perceive a remote enchanted garden, beyond the barriers of time, inhabited by fantastic and wonderful creatures.
The origin of the language called Euskara, spoken by the Basques, is unknown. It is a pre Indo-European language, totally unique, that shares only a few analogies with Caucasic and Berber dialects. This film is a collections of sights and sounds from our experience in the Basque Country!
Enjoy the ride and go to Euskadi! It's magic!
