Cristo at night

A beautiful complex in Central Quito
We walked into this amazing complex in Central Quito by complete accident. It’s opposite the Plaza Grande through a quaint row of coffee shops and restaurants.

Step in to the light!
She walks along a street in Central Havana. It’s Wednesday, time to collect the government rations. The streets are smoky because of the old cars. She walks swiftly to get to her destination. She likes her yellow slippers. They’re sunny!

Follow that car! In Cuba your transportation options are quite interesting! Due to a shortage of vehicles, regular cars often double up as cabs. Blue, smoky and noisy! Truly a trip back to the 60s!
Squeeze that ketchup!
Massive burger spotted in Metepec, Mexico. This king size burger was on sale alongside lesser mortals such as tacos and burritos. Scrunchy lettuce, tomatoes, chicken, ham and more! Delicious! The pure delight on Mr Chef’s face is evident. Unfortunately we didn’t capture the spectators smiles in this shot! Squeeze that … more »

We visited the ‘Death Shop’ in Santiago de Queretaro and found an awesome display of cadavers, trees of life, skull t-shirts and much more! A tradition passed down by the Aztecs, the skull appears … more »
