For the past three weeks I´ve been used to internet cafes where there´s hustle and bustle and cigarettes, (and in Barcelona subway sandwiches) but here at ESCANDA, things are different. There are a few cigarettes, mostly hand rolled, but none in this closet-of-a room with a pretty lantern and triangular shelves where the slow connection can´t load ( Read more... )

I am jealous of you so hardcore right now--it sounds like you're having an amazing (albeit overwhelming--but overwhelm-ment often transforms itself into that all-through-you kind of awe, so it's ok!) experience.
I miss you--Annie and I went to Sarasota this week for some days and I felt the lack of you and Austin's presence really clearly for the first time.
Can't wait to talk to you again--we need to have a good long conversation back at the NCF including full details of this epic journey of yours and also girl talk, which never happened as planned last year!
Until then, appreciate every moment.

man, i completely thought the picasso museum in barcelona was dope as shit. where else do you get to see fucking ceramics picasso did, or picassos little kids toys he painted on when he was a little kid, or his fucking sketchbooks. the picasso museum in paris, that one kinda sucks, but the barcelona one has so much weird stuff

I guess the early childhood stuff was cool and they did make it clear that his younger life was the focus but the blue period was represented by about 3 pieces and cubism by about 4. I was just upset there wasn´t more... I´m still such an American, I guess. I did like his Las Meninas interpretations. What I REALLY wanted to do was the Dali museum in Figueres but we didn´t get out there.
