Minnesota State Fair 2018

September 9, 2018 By alex Leave a Comment

Having experienced 5 hours at the Minnesota State Fair, I can’t help but imagine a post-apocalyptic storyteller spinning a yarn that’s half as indulgent and twice as unbelievable as the real thing.

Day 103

April 18, 2018 By alex Leave a Comment

18 Apr 2018 (Lima, Peru): We walked and ate a lot today. Leah had another ceviche (seriously), I had 2 pollos a la brasa, we both had ice cream, etc etc. Most importantly, this city has really beautiful sunsets over the Pacific. And it feels only fitting that today’s photo should be a sunset. After […]

Then the Spanish put a big-ass cross on it. Now it’s full of tourists […]

14 Apr 2018 (Reserva Nacional de Salinas y Aguada Blanca, Peru): Well, we’ve been trasporting for kind-of-a-while. We left at 6pm yesterday, and we arrive at our place in Yanque at 2pm today. Along the way, the second bus stops a lot of times to enjoy the scenery (but more to buy shit because every […]
