The orientalism of the 21st century
Minimalism. Mindfulness. Meditation. Yoga. Silence of the mind. Elements very present in the present human western moment in time. One can’t go out for a walk in the neighborhood – in a middle-sized town or a great city, in Europe or Latin America – without running into establishments offering services related to these activities.

SHARING IS CARING – short and quite simple saying. I believe we all have used it at some point, however what we should be asking ourselves is: Are we the ones saying it or the ones using it? Are we truly happy if we have it all, but no one to share it with? Let’s…

People whose features have…

Adulthood Certificate. Have you signed yours yet?
When we are born, that moment is registered with our names on a piece of notarized paper that makes it socially official. When we marry, or die, the absolute same.
