Baguio Market - Baguio, Philippines

An outtake from last night as we ate dinner with Ray in the Baguio Market. Having lived here since he was seven, Ray has seen the city grow from the a small mountain town of 40,000, into today's bustling hive of a city with around 1.5 million people. I'll have to fact check that last part, but after spending a few days here, I get the feeling he's pretty spot on. Anyways, more to come from him (and Baguio) later on.

White Sand Beach - Boracay, Philippines

A shot from last night while strolling white sand beach. Despite the massive amount of tourists and hawkers, the evening was truly wonderful.  

I'll be updating the blog with photos as we travel throughout SE Asia and India for the next 2 1/2 months. I'm also working on a portrait project while traveling. Will update with more soon.

Miquel - Seoul, South Korea

A recent portrait of Spanish national Miquel Rossello, founder of Somos Café. When his previous job as a Spanish teacher in Korea ended, Miquel started his own business and opened up Somos, a café and space in the Sinchon neighborhood of Seoul. Offering everything from Spanish lessons to dance parties, Miquel's ambition is to share his Spanish heritage and culture with Korea.

Grace - Itaewon, South Korea

Another portrait from yesterday's shoot for Groove Magazine. Grace is a Korean national who spent her early childhood in Argentina, and in the past, worked for both the Mexican and Colombian embassies in South Korea. Meeting a Korean who can speak fluent Spanish was a unique experience, especially in a mostly mono-cultured country like South Korea.
