I began the week, without really knowing why, listening to some of my favourite songs by Buena Vista Social Club, and they’re quite a few, to be sincere. Thanks to the documentary Win Wenders released, in the late 90s’, I discovered the story behind this iconic Cuban band, although some...

I have just found out about Petra Collins’ work which, on one hand, I have totally loved and which, on another hand, has reminded me I never found the perfect red mohair sweater Nastassja Kinski was wearing in Paris-Texas and for which I was craving last winter.

The idea of an eternal summer looks, as cold times get closer, more and more appealing. My experiences on a surfboard can be counted on the fingers of my hands -of a single hand, actually- but I really wouldn’t mind at all joining up the guys in The Endless Summer by Bruce Brown to...

Hay mucho Brasil más allá de las playas de Copacabana y de la silueta del Pao de Açucar en el horizonte de Río.
