My Pimped Chucks!


At last! Here are my brand new pimped All Stars!
I had the idea in my head for a while, a couple of months ago I finally decided to make them.
It's a bit of different important pieces of my life. Places, people, events that marked me, that made me who I am today.

If you're a friend, you'll probably find yourself represented somewhere in my sneakers =)
I don't often ask for this but, I'd love it if you leave a comment!



Mozambique. Friends from my childhood. My Lucky friends.

Beaches, holidays. Best moments!

Argentina. High School friends. Friends that will last forever.
UK (Tate). Saxophone (learning in progress =P).

Travels. Family. Orange. Crossroads. Blue skies.

If you liked them, and want a pair for yourself, drop me a message!



Cheers!
Raf

    Uau! he llegado a este blog por casualidad, y me han impresionado tus converse. Al principio pensaba que eran compradas así, pero no, resulta que las has hecho tú, con tus vivencias. Una gran idea, y además te han quedado geniales.

    Sigo leyendo el blog, que me parece interesante :-)

Ephemeral Art Museum

If there is one thing to absolutely love about Palermo, it's the amazing quantity and quality of Street Art. This would be a perfect place to have an Ephemeral Art Museum! Raf

A Surf town with no waves

It's a small yet colorful town on the sea-side, cars go by with boards and kayaks on their rooftops. Boys and girls with bleached hair longboard barefooted on the coastal road. There are plenty of surf shops and surf schools around. They built an artificial reef which cost millions of dollars and works only as a home to fish. If you search online, it is tagged as a surf destination. Yet, there are no waves. On a really good day, you are lucky to get a 3 footer. That has only happened once in the past 3 months. It's like a pretend town. It's beautiful, but it's built around something it doesn't have. Hopefully the summer will prove me wrong. I would be really happy to be proven wrong.

Getting Ready

Days until departure: 12 Preparations have started.  I am taking advantage of a lull with my clients and my own bootstrapped projects to focus on making sure I pack everything we need while trying to keep to the absolute basics- an oxymoron in itself.  The goal is to travel with one backpack each and dispatch a duffel bag.  I am the Queen of Lists Where are we taking off to? North of Sweden, in the Gulf of Bothnia (Ever heard of it? Me neither until about 2 months ago). Way up north in the Gulf of Bothnia, see where Oslo is for reference Why that destination? We've been on the lookout for a sailboat for a couple of years. Although we've saved some money, it's on the lower side and not enough to buy a sailboat that meets what we need, so we've been hunting for an opportunity. Those who know us understand that we are quite frugal, so our requirements are pretty basic. We've visited a few boats, but none were right, either because of their price or condition. But now
