Trash, Fútbol, etc.
As trying to re-cap the last month feels too intimidating, I’m going to start with some snippits from this week.
I decided to shoot my documentary about trash. I don’t really how I’m going to tackle the issue, but the topic seems so complex that it calls for a something free from delusions of comprehension. Dissection is useful sometimes, but unattractive when performed by a foreigner (even...

Cabo Polonio, you're so chill.
What do you get when you cross a national refuge without roads, massive sand dunes, hippies living by the Mayan calendar (only two years left), and sea lions? Cabo Polonio.

Cemeterio Inglesa y Javier
I went for a short jaunt around Malvín today to take some pictures and get a feel for the area.

After passing through customs, I was greeted by a crowd of expectant parents, children,...

Horse Ridin'
Yesterday, the birthday of my country, was by far the coolest day I have had here so far. It started out with a bus ride to Ritoque, a beach just to the north of Viña del Mar. Our group hopped off the bus and signed on the dotted line—accepting responsibility for any accident that may happen on their trail horses. Then, it was time to saddle up and choose your ride for the afternoon. I was...
