Its been ages since i had something to say or felt like writing, nearly 3 months has passed since i arrived back to Buenos Aires from my tranquilo life in El Bolson, working in hostel heaven. What a memory it will stay, such an amazing place to chill and meet locals and suck up fresh clean country air. Was such a great experience sometimes i wonder why i ever left. Back in the big smokey ciudad is definately a slap in the face and people don´t seem to have as much time for a lazy chat. This is the hardest part of starting from nothing in a new city.

We crossed 9 de Julio Avenue’s all ... read more

There is a lady singer. Her name is Mazzy Star. I haven't thought about her in years. Possibly since my second year in college. I was just sitting down to write and thought I would put on a little mood music. I found a Mazzy Star song on Eddo's i-pod. "Mazzy Star" I thought "I havent heard her in years....oh man...that reminds me of Mariah." I put on the song and I get this feeling. Like slipping under cool soft sheets, sitting on grass in the shade on a hot summer day, the smell of black berries and apples swollen with ripeness. The feeling is like floating in a warm bath, eating ice cream, twirling in a "twirl skirt", squinting at the sparkles in the water that surrounds you on a sailboat....looking at fat juicy jellyfish ... read more
