Insouciant bling
This gal certainly ain’t no wallflower. Love the juxtaposition of casual insouciance, an infective attitude and more bling than a Copacabana samba dancer. Of course, she is wearing more clothes than said dancer in the first place, so I suppose that’s not hard.

It’s my theory that all of us are mad. Some of us area just more mad than others, that’s all.
No one else, for example, would endure five hours in a sub-zero overnight bus and three hours of waiting for the sun to rise in a bus station, only to change their mind and jump on another two buses for a total of eight hours to get to their next destination. But then, it seems that Xilitla...

Disclaimer: I don’t normally write about my personal life on this blog, but I’m going to make an exception. I’m in Mexico, for goodness ’ sake.
You know that saying ‘I love … like a fat kid loves cake?’ Yeah. Mexico is my cake: fun, always up for a party and guaranteed to clog my arteries (except in a savory manner; their desserts aren’t very good, unless you count ate, that sticky, sweet paste...

Never heard of either destination? Shame on you if you’ve never heard of Guadalajara, or Gdl for short (Guads if you’re Aussie). I...

Can you tell me about what you’re wearing? Okay, I’ll tell you a story. I went to Brisbane in… oh I don’t know, when I came back from New York and I did the Mercedes Benz Fashion Festival, and this outfit - the skirt and the top and everything - was part of one of the looks. I remember being backstage and saying to the stylist, ‘Please! Let me know what that...

Four more days
My trusty companion - part guide-book/travel journal, it has all my notes, cards and random flyers and is probably more of a record of my travels than any other “journal” I’ve attempted to keep/not keep.
