A friend of mine stepped on our balcony and said “wow,this makes you fall in love with Buenos Aires again”. Now we’re sitting here and talking about this – how the magic of the city captures you. Buenos Aires breathes love. Love is a big theme here, life is hard, reality is cruel but love …

Friday night

Friday night is about to begin, a week has passed. A lover’s kiss and we set out into the dark, to travel in space and to dance to unknown rhythms. “En las profundidades del mundo existen espacios muy grandes”, escribe Jaime Saenz, “quien sabe con qué secreto deseo, de llegar a saber quién sabe qué.” …
