just starting out... on our way to one of many adventures chico donkey dragging is a sport joey gives a thumps up to NICARAGUA I got the privilege to travel to Nicaragua, to help with the producing / filming of a 1st hand episode. The trip consisted of traveling to Nica with a few pro skateboarders and document the origins of Chico Brenes a professional skateboarder that made it to the US when he was 10, and became one of the most well know skateboarders of the industry. The magic, color, and uncertainty of this amazing land were the backdrop of this marvelous adventure, and the company of people like Colin Kennedy, Rob G, Danny Montoya, Joey Bresinsky, up and comer Luis Tolentino and of course Chico Brenes made this trip an unforgettable one. Enjoy some of my phone pictures while I developed the others.
A very creative artist from Poland who uses the streets and billboards as his personal canvas. The picture above is from his work "War Has Started" that shows another side of the artist using a witty stencil in times of national security? whatever. His other works tend criticize the public idolization of "sacred" symbols but at the same time he tries to express unity as a lost concept it a society based on images.
I love Alfred Darlington aka Daedelus. For all you L.A.ers, he`s a L.A. based music producer that makes awesome music and knows what the crowd wants. Check out his myspace here.
So this photographer (Todd Selby) decided to go to every artist/musician/painter/writer or any other creative/interesting person he knew and took pictures of their homes. Yeah, kinda like 'Cribs' but way better.
My good friend Huck sent me this with the promise to take me there when I go visit my family in Puerto Rico. Is in Orocovis, center of the island. They call it Hippies, because there is supposed to be a hip[pie commune around there with out electricity and shit, looking forward to check that out too.

Came to check it out while on tour in Buenos Aires, impressive!
"Cementerio DE LA RECOLETA For the living and dead alike, Recoleta is Buenos Aires’s most prestigious address. The roster of residents within its walls represents wealth and power as surely as the inhabitants of surrounding Francophile mansions and luxury apartment towers hoard their assets in overseas bank accounts. Arguably, the cemetery is even more exclusive than the neighborhood—enough cash can buy an impressive residence, but not a surname like Alvear, Anchorena, Mitre, Pueyrredón, or Sarmiento."
