Description
I should be working... I can't help myself with these things.To all of you people like myself that decide to go there by foot, instead of waiting for a bus that may not come. It's windy, it's cold, but you walk, and you will eventually arrive, maybe even sooner. This one is specially dedicated to ~garazy , who left his country for a good experience, and surely show how to enjoy it. Now he's going back, with some beautiful memories on his backpack, that's for sure.
Above all, for people that know how to keep walking even when it's difficult, but also knows to look back and not forget where they're coming from. Keep walking (like Guybrush ).

do you want to know something? at first i had written you on the description, about how you took the chance and pay a lot of money (maybe too much for you) on something you really like, and with all that implies, and the risks. it would have been hard for me you know, but you did it (or doing it) and that's great. i swear i wrote that and then deleted it cos i thought you'd think i was overestimating your cooper step. but it seems i was not. it keeps amazing me, how we do these things even without derren in between.

hehe.. my life seems to be a rocky path uphill most of the time (but that's the way I've chosen it to be, in hindsight the smooth-downhill-path people are the truly poor ones), but regarding the car thing, this is actually a lot easier (at this point in my life!) than I thought it could've been. the reason is that quite a few things have decided to culminate about the same point in time, and some hard work is starting to pay off now. actually more than the hard work.. also having been nice, respectful and helpful to other people also pays out. not that it's intended (I'd be nice, respectful and helpful to most other people any time without getting any form of compensation) but it helps (and I'm not necessarily talking financially here, but that's a big long other story to be told another time)
Long car story short: a few things are coming together (cook book, top floor, adsense, my mom, ...) and they allow me to do one of the crazy and cool things in my life. And one thing I have thoroughly learnt in my life: if you get an opportunity, grab it!! So why shouldn't I do it now instead of waiting and waiting and then one day not being able to do it anymore because the kids won't fit in the car and it's not good for family shopping and ... well, you get the picture, it's either NOW or NEVER

See, this is what art is all about.
Something that makes you think, man.
Not some digitally rendered drawing of a half naked girl with big ass tits and a sword.
I'm honored to be able to see you work.
and by the way, do you have a dollar I can have?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
i agree with you on this. at least that's not the art i'm interested on seeing.
after all, that's what they invented photography for, haha, nah just kidding.
sorry but i didn't get the and by the way, do you have a dollar I can have? 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it's a joke thing, when you compliment someone - and just to be a smart ass, you ask for a dollar.
it's a way of saying "now that I said all those things about you, can I please have a dollar?"
you get it?

oh yes of course, we do this in buenos aires too, but more focused on actual favors, like i help you with some pc problem and when it's solved you say "thank you" and i say "not a problem, it's five pesos" .

yeah, it's something like that.
you people from Buenos Aires... such jokesters. HA!

Walking in the winds here in summer is a different experience altogether, its like walking in front of a giant hot hair dryer with sand flying in ur face.... welcome to Arabia!

this is a great example of what i like about da, this interesting feedback from somebody on a completely different setting than mine, so rich to read it. thanks.

Walking in winds like that is strange, especially if it's more than a mile, because you get used to leaning into it, and then you get inside and feel like you're on a slant. I like the blips of autumn in the background.

that's absolutely true, or like when you've been carrying a heavy weight and you take it off you feels so light, almost like half gravity.
