Bye New York


So after a weekend at my parents' house on Long Island, I am finally on my way to South Africa via JFK international. 4 months of waiting for this day. 14 years of desire for this journey. OT Tambo International, here I come.

I'll see you in 14 days New York!

(PS, this is what gets done while waiting for my flight)

The gentrification of Harlem


So many white people! So many corporate appearances on 125th... What happened to the Harlem that scared me 2 years ago?

Who's doing their re-marketing!!!

East Williamsburg



Nothing like a stroll through the (industrial) park.

Art to go


I had a bbq for my birthday Friday night, Saturday (the actual night of my Birthday) I took myself out to Tandem for a drink and then met up with some old friends to go to the Bushwick Art Show on Ingraham st. The catch: All the shows were being held inside of moving trucks. It was quite cool.

There were performances, a huge slumber party and a "shoot the freak" game all within the 20+ moving trucks. Pity the police had to come and ruin this....
