One of my favorite places to go and take pictures -and probably most photogenic one- in Buenos Aires -Cemetery of Recoleta.

Extended weekends, too much homework and a too demanding family have been keeping me from writing. I thought I –and my daughter A as well- were way too old for this. I remember it as if it was just yesterday, the first time my daughter came home with a letter…

Isn’t Starbucks –probably together with McDonald- one of those typical American icons? To me Starbucks was so American that I wouldn’t even consider going to one outside of the US. It’s like eating French fries (in case you don’t know, they are Belgian) in other countries and expect them to…
