Autumn in Gothenburg

There’s a certain kind of silence that creeps into Gothenburg when October hits. The tourists are gone. The summer optimism packed up and shipped off like the last ferry to Denmark.

Kent is one of the most popular bands in Sweden and tonight they played their last gig ever in Gothenburg, as part of their farewell tour.

Reliving history in Washington D.C.

Reliving history in Washington D.C.

Washington D.C. is a city built on contradictions. Grand ideals etched in stone and a history that’s as bloody as it is idealized. The capital of the United States is a place where the marble glows white and the ghosts never shut up.

Chilling in Chile

Compared to stern Santiago, Valparaiso looks like a drunken cousin who spent a year in art school and now lives in a maze of color-splashed alleys and rusted funiculars.

The eternal mist of Lima

The eternal mist of Lima

Lima seems to be eternally shrouded in grey, as the mist drapes the capital in a near-perpetual blanket of grey for half the year. Sunshine is a rumor. Blue skies, a myth.
