i love nellie

that's nellie :) i remember falling in love with her in london and learning to live inside her and sometimes hating the constrictions that came with that and sometimes loving the freedom nellie gave me and other times just laying back and feeling so lucky to be able to experience that poetic nellie lifestyle :) after a long trip from london to marrakesh and back nellie saved my life at the car accident on the 11th of november 2007. she got too damaged so she'll never run free again. me and kyle said goodbye to her close to castelo branco and left her next to a bunch of other old cars that didn't have much use anymore. nellie was great :) she was a dodge spacevan 2000 and she had a great personality. everywhere me and kyle went on her people waved at us and came around to see her, she was a star!

the fish with the color of tangerine for good fortune and the pirate because piracy is not just stealing but stealing with an ideology ;) we left the fish spreading good fortune over the A23! the pirate made it to cascais :)

perfect ramadan days at plage des nations. reading, playing beach tennis, writing, walking, swimming, eating harira, playing gin rummy, watching the russian radio pole, hoping for some waves to come so that kyle could surf, looking at kids doing mortal jumps in the sand, letting time unfold x

the sun sets everyday. it's that simple

this was a great place to stop and spend the night and read 'one thousand plateaus' in the early hours

there's something about arid places.. like the skin feels the aliveness of the mineral

one day i felt i needed to go back to my classes in london and we headed north again
