Graffiti de Palermo

First bike ride since ive been here. Absolutely perfect opportunity to photograph street art and graffiti in Palermo. There was almost never an opportunity to not take a picture. I know thats a double negative but with a creative mind there are a million pictures to be taken in this neighborhood...

slowest moving ambulance ive ever seen. thing had its lights on but still stopped at a stop light

nice to see the sentiment

this is the style of bike most people ride here. exactly the same as the bike i road, seen up against the commissioned piece wall in the top picture. i got reallly excited at first that it was a fixed gear but upon further inspection, single speed with coaster brakes. still lots of fun though

yep i got goals...

San Telmo

Moved hostels a few days ago to the opposite side of town, an area called San Telmo. Very different than Palermo but equally as beautiful. Kinda looks like china town in new york with everything being so close together and dirty and the streets feeling narrow. Obviously with a south american twist but just like parts of nyc, dodgy at night. The new hostel im staying at is incredible as well with a significantly different vibe than casa esmeralda. Ill post pictures of it tomorrow. For now heres a few I snapped in and around the sunday market in san telmo...

Roommate from columbia and one of two girls from brazil both of which I absolutely love. Her name is Isabella

my good turkish friend Emrah, working remotely as a graphic designer on his computer in order to pay for his travels
