Traveling around Cali!
There are cactus for everywhere... California looks like a mix among the "wild wild west", Mexican, Spanish and English style... At least that is my impression and I love it. You can see Spanish and Mexican missions along California, enjoy the beach and at the same time, enjoy outstanding landscapes in the mountains. Everything with a cover of fog and humidity that surrounds these places and give them a lot of mystery and magic.
With such travels I have met and seen a lot of different people... These people have, surprisingly to me, opened my mind to new and differents ways of living, thinking and looking at "what life is" in a new country, a town, a village... Another part of the world different from home that let me see everything with a special point of view that disappears as rapidly as the days die. I had to take pictures quickly to not let time escapes this magic that impregnates my way of looking at things with a freshness that, quickly, is gone. I can reflect it on my photos and drawings. I wish this feeling would last forever in every place where I stay.

¡Viajando alrededor de California!
Hay cactus por todos lados... California parece una mezcla entre el salvaje Oeste, México, España e Inglaterra, al menos es mi impresión, y me encanta. Puedes visitar las misiones españolas y mejicanas, disfrutar de la playa y al mismo tiempo disfrutar de los espectaculares paisajes en las montañas. Todo con un manto de niebla y humedad que envuelven estos parajes y les da misterio y magia.
Con tanto viaje he conocido y visto a gente muy diferente en la zona... Gente que me ha hecho sorprenderme y abrir mi mente a nuevas maneras de vivir, de pensar y observar... "Vivir" un nuevo país, una nueva ciudad, un nuevo pueblo... Otra parte del mundo distinta de mi casa me hace verlo todo con un punto de vista especial que desaparece tan pronto como acaban los días. He tenido que capturar fotografías rápidamente para no permitir al tiempo dejar escapar esta magia que impregna mi forma de mirar con una frescura inicial que pronto se va pero que puedo reflejarla en las fotos y dibujos que hago. Desearía que este sentimiento durara para siempre en cada sitio en el que estoy.
