I arrived around 6 to the airport and then took the metro, Julia would pick me at La Salle station. While I was waiting for her, I could notice that the Ukrainian Village was close, and being that I’m terrible staying at one place without anything to do, I decided to take a walk through…

Time passed by and surprisingly I could finish all the paperwork related to the visa, that by the way, motherfuckers they did know how to do business with their overpriced tariffs.

Ohhh boy what a good decision it was! I must say that it took me a little while to adapt, but once I was settled, everything was feeling all right. Out of a sudden I was surrounded by people really good at their craft, but most important by friends who both inspired me with their…

“Mariano” “Wake up Mariano” I don’t really know how I ended up here. Funny how the most insignificant things shape our lives, in a way that make us take big decisions that get us in different roads. Those insignificant things I’m referring to are usually beyond logic, external, they are sometimes palpable and sometimes intangible,…
