About compositions of a moment and microclimates
So I tangoed. I liked. Met three American girls. A bit OMG, but very sweet. I went to the Centro Cultural de la Recoleta I love exhibitions They always inspire me Pequeño Editor I love looking at drawings. Because I can’t create anything similarly beautiful. That’s why I take pictures. None and lots of imagination Continue reading

27 January. It’s Thursday.
How can you possibly choose between standing on the top of a mountain, overlooking a million peaks, or driving through absolute nothingness – and the buzzing life in a big city, full of art, ideas, buses cruising the streets, bars, restaurants, parks, books, passing faces, existences barely touching each other. I love looking out of Continue reading

Iguazu_S 25° 41′ 43″ W 54° 26′ 12″
Flight to Iguazu: missed. I might have said this before, but Aerolinas Argentinas is a disaster. BUT: they show Glee! And you have your own little TV. Which is more than Lufthansa offers on their 13hrs flight across the Atlantic. I don’t think I ever laughed so much over a stupid TV show. It’s so Continue reading

Esquel_S 42° 54′ 0″ W 71° 19′ 0″ After almost a whole day of driving through absolute nothingness In Esquel, people like to water their front lawn. Even if they don’t have a front lawn. Random thoughts pop up in my head, in this place – If the Argentinians didn’t eat so many cows, there would be Continue reading

El Chaltén_S 49°19′44” W 72°55′48”
While usually a million thoughts run through my mind, this place strangely quiets me down. The most difficult thing to do in this moment is to coordinate apple pie, music, writing, bad coffee and taking in the view. Coloured little houses Shops Cafés People coming back from the mountains It’s a tiny place A few Continue reading
