Limestone Landscapes – Le Salève, Geneva

Paragliding Le Salève from Nicholas Guest on Vimeo.

I will be moving to Geneva at the start of August and am getting very excited about a new area to explore – as a Geographer, as a teacher looking for fieldwork opportunities and an outdoor person who likes to walk, bike and climb.

The video above was produced by a paragliding friend of a friend and show the Le Salève – a limestone mountain just to the south of Geneva.

There is a cable car to the summit, walks, VTT (MTB) routes and climbing to be enjoyed all within 30 minutes drive of where we will be living.

A380 Convoy – The Geography of Manufacture

A380 Wing - Levignac

I will be leaving Toulouse at the end of this month to go and live near Geneva.  One of the things on my checklist of ‘things I want to do before I leave Toulouse’ was to see one of the convoys of A380 sections as it passes through the French countryside on it’s way to the Airbus factory at Toulouse airport.  One Wednesday, completely by chance I was lucky enough to near bump into one!

The parts of the A380 are made throughout Europe with the final product – the A380 – being assembled in Toulouse.  The following diagram shows some of the locations involved:

There is an excellent article produced by the Guardian that explores the journey of the parts to Toulouse.  It can be read here.  It makes an interesting case study or international manufacture.
