w e i r d h o n e y: 2015

for the last time

b&w cathedrals from amiens, vernon, notre dame.

so this summer I decided to extend my stay in paris to conduct research sponsored by the columbia european institute. I'm studying the transnational identities of native american men who have been recruited by disneyland paris to work as "bareback riders" in their buffalo bill's wild west show. so far I've met really cool guys & am getting to understand how they adapt to their new environments, sometimes permanently.

aside from that, I'm living in a studio near montmartre paris. this is the first time I've ever lived alone like this (sans roommate/host parent) & I absolutely love it. I have so much freedom to do my work & make things I've always wanted to. during my time in paris I've started writing & recording little tunes under the moniker ultra doux & I'm taking so many more photos of nothing. since moving from the 5th to the 9th arrondissement, I've gotten to explore so much more of paris than I ever could during the semester. leaving rue de rochechouart is going to be really hard.

amsterdam

heather & I went to amsterdam in mid-june. besides the insane australian dudes/coke/group sex fiasco in our hostel, it was a lovely & relaxing time. if we were there any longer I would have gained 30 pounds eating poffertjes (mini dutch pancakes so good alskdlasf;l)

deux amies

primavera sound

I went to music festival primavera sound in barcelona w a good friend & met so many awesome people. we danced all night, watched the sunrise over the beach, died & came back to life to james blake's performance. wish I had more photos but my phone/disposable camera were stolen the first night...lol. nonetheless it was one of the best weekends of my life. who's coming w me next year :-)?

morocco: azilal

one of the days we were in morocco, ana, robbie & I decided to visit les cascades d'ouzoud. our concierge told us it was a 2 hour drive away but we discovered en route that it was actually somewhere around 4 hours away lol. but I can't complain bc the drive through the countryside was breathtaking. we kept stopping for our driver to take cigarette breaks (which he called "picture time") & saw a local market, kids playing soccer, fields of endless poppies. our driver even picked flowers w me hehe

seeing the waterfalls was a wild experience. our guide was hilarious & so full of energy, tho he didn't appreciate ana choosing real madrid over barcelona. I said a few prayers in the cold water & am very thankful for these memories. these pictures can't even do it justice.
