During our summer vacation in Bretagne, France, my family and I loved hiking and walking, may it be in the rugged headlands, by the dramatic cliffs, along the coast, on the wide sandy beaches, through the quaint fishing ports, up in the mountain or in the forest. While hiking along, we made frequent stops classifying, naming or just simply admiring the alluring wildflowers. Even when already tired, sweaty and thirsty from trekking, when we spotted these dazzling flowers, they always took our breath away.

Personally, I have always been in awe of the blooming wildflowers. They are delicate and dainty. They are independent as they grow on their own and require no maintenance. They are unexpected, unique and exotic. They are wild, fierce and strong. They are free. They are amazing, beautiful and delightfully attractive.
