At the start of the twentieth century, the falls provided hydro-electric power for Guadalajara and turned the wheels of a cotton and woolen mill, the ruins of which now stand to one side.

Ajijic, Mexico - Fiesta San Sebastian Parade 2013
The parade for San Sebastian in Ajijic, Mexico. This is a yearly event, which includes a joyous parade and street party. The statue of San Sebastian, usually located in the town's old church, is displayed at an alter in the village temporarily. There is a parade in the afternoon, where the statue is ceremoniously carried back to the church and restored to its normal location.
The Guadalajara Reporter featured a nice article, which explains the event in more detail. As long as the article is available, you can read about it here:
This was our first experience with a local parade since we arrived in Ajijic. From other videos I've seen, it's a relatively small affair, but we had lots of fun watching the participants have such a great time... especially the kids.
Sierra la Laguna May 2016
Trip to Sierra de la Laguna in Baja California Sur, Mexico.
A 4 day hike up to the top El Picacho. Starting from Todos Santos we took an 8 hours hike up to the base camp which is the place where once the laguna used to be.
This is the perfect spot to set up you tent as it is protected by trees and also because water is very close.
From this point we took a 2,5 hours hike up to the top of the mountain on the second day and a 3 hour hike to the waterfalls on the 3rd day.
There is a second way to reach the base camp and that is when starting from San Dionisio (close to Santiago). This hike takes longer but is not as steep as the one from Todos Santos.
We also hired a guide and 2 donkeys for carrying the heavy equipment. In our planning we included 4 liters of water for the first day hiking: at the base camp the water from the river is drinkable, at least we had no troubles even though we did not boil it.
Plan the hike carefully as you are entering rough terrain with no assistance around you: even cell phone does not work all the time, only in a few exposed spots you get a bit of signal. You need to take everything you need with you, and be prepared for rain as that eventuality is always around.
Best time to go: November through April. In this time there should be great amount of water and vegetation is green. Temperatures are more comfortable, especially for the long hikes up and down to and from the base camp.
At the base camp temperatures are comfortable although during the night we needed a jumper as it got pretty fresh. We went in late May, so I believe that during the winter it must be even colder.
And don't forget to carefully choose your travel companions, the better the people with you the more awesome the whole trip!! :-)

Trip to Sierra Lago Resort
This is the last of the video for my vacation in Mexico. Sadly I was not fully into videography at that time. I'm not sponsored by Sierra Lago Resort but we loved the resort. We did an all inclusive 3 days 2 night and it was super nice and a great getaway from your everyday life. The resort is on top of a mountain and there is a lake and great views. There is a lot of activities you can do like horseback riding, spa, canoeing, etc.
The best thing was at night for all you stargazers. You can see all the stars because there is not light pollution.

Loft apartment located in London, UK, was designed by Nomade Architettura Interior Design.
The apartment is the result of the conversion of an industrial building, the loft par excellence, in one of the most fashionable areas of the moment, Shoreditch. The desire from the beginning was to create a home that let the flavor of the story that had been lived within those walls. An industrial flavor that does not conceal the past, indeed it kept it alive. The living area occupies the lower part of the loft, with a kitchen, dining area and large double height living room, on which overlooks the sleeping area located on the mezzanine. The colors and the materials are of a warm palette, enveloping. A mix between industrial and residential, where the raw wax iron and the large windows play an important role as a binder between the past and the future of the property. The bathrooms have a retro feel, with cement tiles that characterize the environment connoting a taste that ties in perfectly with the rest of the house. The owners, a young Italian couple, brought with them memories of their trips, Sundays spent in vintage markets such as Portobello Road, so that the house becomes also a kind of travelogue, where every corner, every detail speaks of their history . The basement of the house has been converted into a tavern for the parties, with a kitchen and a large dining table, built to host the whole family from Italy for special occasions! The TV area is surrounded by a large sofa, perfect for relaxed Sundays with friends!
